Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Maraenui building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
