A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Pakipaki building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
