If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Horokiwi building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
