It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Kenepuru building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences.
