Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Hataitai building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
