Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Pauatahanui building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
