If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to be left with costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Te Awa building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
