Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Kenepuru building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair 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

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
