If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Aotea building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications 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 with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
