Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Waipawa building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
