If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Pakowhai building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
