The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to be left with costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Te Mata building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
