It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Pauatahanui building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
