The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Pakipaki building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
