Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Haumoana building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
