The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Waitangirua building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
