The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Hastings Central building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
