The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Maupuia building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
