What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Hongoeka building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
