What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Te Mata Hills building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
