Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Te Mata building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
