Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Haumoana building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
