What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re 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 has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
