The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Kotemaori building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
