What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Ngauranga building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
