Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Napier building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
