What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Kenepuru building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew 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: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
