Why Are 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 agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Te Aro building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
