If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Havelock North Central building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.
