It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Titahi Bay building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

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

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
