Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Te Aro building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
