What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Thorndon building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
