The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Kenepuru building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
