If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Takapuwahia building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This assures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
