It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Raureka building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
