Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Napier building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
