What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Pakipaki building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.
