Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Papakowhai building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
