The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Upper Hutt building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
