The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Waitangirua building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
