Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Pakipaki building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
