What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Petone building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
