In short: Established homes behind the estates inspect nothing like a new build.
What is still there
Houses and acreage from before the 2004 growth designation, on larger blocks behind the new estates.
Why they differ
Decades of alterations, additions, deferred maintenance and services installed to older practice.
What we look at
Visible structure and movement, roof space and subfloor where accessible, roof covering, masonry cracking measured, and site drainage.
The permit question
Additions over decades may never have had approval, which is a council records question worth asking before contracts.
