If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Karori building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
