Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Te Hauke building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
