What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Te Marua building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
