The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Pauatahanui building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been 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 can leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
