Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Hutt Central building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
