Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Te Awa building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
