The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Takapuwahia building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
