The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Titahi Bay building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of 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 pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
