Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Karori building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
