If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Waiohiki building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This assures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
