Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Karori building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
