Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
