What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Aotea building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
