What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Waipatu building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
