Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Ahuriri building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
