What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Ngauranga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until 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.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
