If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Napier South building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
