What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

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 nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Wellington Central building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
