What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a certified Pukerua Bay building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This assures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
