Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Ngauranga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
