Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Pakowhai building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
