If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Te Aro building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

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

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
