It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Kaiwharawhara building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
