Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Te Aro building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
