It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Kelburn building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
