Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Tawa building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: 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 will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
