Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Te Marua building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
