Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Naenae building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
