What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Karori building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
