Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Takapuwahia building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
