What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Naenae building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
