If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Ngaio 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 ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
