The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Should you really check it out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an qualified Pukerua Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
