Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Ngauranga building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 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. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
