Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Napier South building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re 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: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
