The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Korokoro building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
