Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Whakatu building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
