The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Waitangirua building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
