Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Kenepuru building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
