What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Awatoto building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
