What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Te Marua building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
