The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Te Aro building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards 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 might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
