The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but 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 inspection report issued by a qualified Kotemaori building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
