If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Hataitai building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
