If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Poraiti building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
