What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Kotemaori building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
