If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Ahuriri building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
