A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Hongoeka building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
