The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Haumoana building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
