The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Takapuwahia building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
