Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Highbury building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.

Does this change require a building consent? Complete building inspection reports can determine what work on the building doesn't have a building consent.
