It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Te Mata Hills building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
