Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might 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 prepared by an qualified Thorndon building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or 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 cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed 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. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
