A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Mount Cook building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
