Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Kenepuru building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
