The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Hongoeka building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
