It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Raupunga building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
