Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Tawa building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
