Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.

Inspections of property or household inspections provide an honest review, instead of what the real estate agent thinks is the right answer.
