Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Karori building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
