Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Wellington Central building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
