The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really need to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Thorndon building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.

House inspections or property inspections offer an impartial review rather than what the estate agent believes is the right answer.
