Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Ngauranga building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
