Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Ngauranga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home 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, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
