If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Hataitai building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property 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.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
