Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Kenepuru building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
