The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Petone building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or 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 can leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
