A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Wainuiomata building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
