If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Naenae building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
