Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Wellington building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.

Inspections of properties or houses provide an impartial review instead of what the real estate agent thinks is the best answer.
