If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Haumoana building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
