Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Raureka building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
