Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built 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. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.

Inspections of property or house inspections are a must for anyone buying an house. With the escalating price of homes and the rising costs of building maintenance, it is crucial to know the exact value of what you purchase.
