What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Napier building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It will make sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
