What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Te Aro building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
