The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Pauatahanui building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
