The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Te Aro building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
