If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an qualified Karori building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
