Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Tawa building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
