Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Takapuwahia building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
