What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Te Awanga building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

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

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
