Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Te Hauke building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
