The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Should you really check it out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Hastings Central building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: 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 building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
