Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Korokoro building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
