The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Ngauranga building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
