What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Upper Hutt building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
