Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Haumoana building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
