Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Wellington Central building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
