What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Kotemaori building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

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

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
