Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Kelburn building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
