Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Tawa building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected 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, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
