If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Kenepuru building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
