What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Waitangirua building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
