Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Kaiwharawhara building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It ensures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
