Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Te Marua building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
