You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Maungaraki building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
