Hidden water ingress, unsafe wiring, failing roofs, and non compliant additions are easy to miss during a viewing and they become your problem once you go unconditional. We carry out a thorough pre-purchase house inspection during your due diligence or cooling off period, check structure, services, and compliance, explain the findings, and give practical repair cost guidance so you avoid surprise bills, insurance problems, and financing hold ups.
We are local to Palmerston North, licensed and insured, and we inspect to accredited building inspection standards using moisture metres, thermal scanning, and safe access to subfloor and roof space where possible. Many buyers rely on a quick once over or book the inspection after finance approval, which weakens your negotiation power and can leave you paying for selfcontrol faults after settlement.
