What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Kaiwharawhara building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
