If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Hongoeka building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
