The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Takapuwahia building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
