If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Ngaio building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
