Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Tamatea building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
