What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Ahuriri building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
