What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Naenae building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
