What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Titahi Bay building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
