Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Taita building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
