If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Pauatahanui building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.
