Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Hastings Central building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
