What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Takapuwahia building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
