Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Te Marua building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with 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 home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "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 installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
