What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household 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: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
