Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Pukahu building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
