The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Porirua building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
