Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Tawa building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
