Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Paremata building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
