What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

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

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
