Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Ngaio building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.
