If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Hongoeka building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

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

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior 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: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
