Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Te Mata building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
