Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Maoribank building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
