If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Horokiwi building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It will make sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

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

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
