Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Aotea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
