The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Heretaunga building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences.
