What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Hongoeka building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
