The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Kenepuru building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
