If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Te Mata building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
