Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a certified Te Marua building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
