Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Te Aro building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
