If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Karori building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
