What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Te Awanga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
