A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Te Awa building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
