Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Takapuwahia building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
