If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Takapuwahia building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
