The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Karori building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
