Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Kenepuru building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
