What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Waipawa building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
