If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Titahi Bay building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
