The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
