If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Titahi Bay building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
