The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Te Aro building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Te Aro

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
