What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Whakatu building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household 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 caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
