The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Takapuwahia building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 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 surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
