Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Haumoana building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp 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 household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
