The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Korokoro building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
