If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Raureka building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
