The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Maraenui building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
