What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Tamatea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

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