What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Pauatahanui building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
