If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Karori building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
