The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Waipawa 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 ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following 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. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
