Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Rongotai building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
