The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Te Aro building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
