The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Te Marua building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
