Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Pakipaki building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
