If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Napier building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
