What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to be left with costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Kenepuru building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
