What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Waipatu building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will make sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
