The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Maungaraki building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
