Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Kenepuru building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
