The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Ahuriri building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Ahuriri

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
