What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so 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 great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Petone building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
