The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really need to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Wairoa building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
