The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Te Marua building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
