What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Te Mata building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

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

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

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
