What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Karori building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
