Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Ngauranga building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
