Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Karori building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
