What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Maungaraki building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
