What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Rongotai building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
