What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Aotea building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
