Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Karori building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
