The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Karori building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
