If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Aotea building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
