Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Pukerua Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
