If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Korokoro building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken 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 in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
