Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Waitangirua building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
