What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Kenepuru building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
