It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Tutira building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
