Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Pakipaki building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
