Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really need to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not 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 prepared by an certified Te Aro building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
