Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Kaiwharawhara building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure 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

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
