It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Maraenui building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
