Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Ahuriri building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
