The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really need to check it out?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Taita building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building 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 and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
