If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Horokiwi building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
