What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Takapuwahia building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
