What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an qualified Thorndon building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
