If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Napier South building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
