Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Kaiwharawhara building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
