Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Kaiwharawhara building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
