What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Kenepuru building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
