Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Te Aro building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
