If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Ahuriri building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
