What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Tawa building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
