The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Kenepuru building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
