Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Korokoro building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
