What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Maupuia building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

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