If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Aotea building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
