You get only minutes at an open home, and most flaws sit in the roof space, subfloor, or wet areas. We carry out a pre-purchase house inspection before you make an offer or during your cooling off period and deliver a correct, plain language report with photos and realistic repair ranges so you can decide with facts.
We are local to Longburn and carry out house inspections and building inspections with licensed, insured inspectors who have built and renovated homes. We get into the roof space and subfloor, use moisture meters and thermal imaging when needed, and deliver same day photo reports, because rushed walk throughs and checklist only reports miss defects that can cost thousands after settlement.

A pre-purchase house inspection is a detailed check of a property’s condition done before you complete the purchase. It covers the structure, roof, plumbing, electrical, and other key parts to find hidden issues, and sits alongside other building inspections and house inspections people order before making an offer. For peace of mind before you buy, or if you need a pre-sale house inspection, contact Palmerston North House Inspections in Longburn at 0800 000 413.
A pre-purchase inspection–often called a building inspection–gives you a real look at the property’s condition, helping you find issues early and avoid expensive surprises after closing. It also gives you stronger negotiating power in price negotiations. Call Palmerston North House Inspections in Longburn at 0800 000 413 to book your house inspection today.
Book the pre-purchase house inspection right after your offer is accepted and before the contract becomes binding. This timing gives you time to review the report, talk through any issues from the building inspections, and decide what to do; sellers may have a pre-sale house inspection, but you should still get your own. To book, call Palmerston North House Inspections in Longburn at 0800 000 413.
The report lays out clear findings for every area of the home we can reach, such as the structural parts, roofing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems. For clarity, it usually has photos and straightforward notes. For a full, thorough house inspections report–similar to what we provide for building inspections and a pre-sale house inspection–contact Palmerston North House Inspections at 0800 000 413.
Yes. If the inspection turns up defects or safety issues, you can use the report to ask for repairs, a price cut, or a seller credit at closing. This is common with house inspections and building inspections and gives you solid bargaining power, much like a pre-sale house inspection does for the seller. Don’t miss the chance–call Palmerston North House Inspections in Longburn at 0800 000 413 to book your inspection.
Typical findings are roof wear or damage, plumbing leaks, electrical issues, structural cracking, poor drainage, and signs of termites or other pests, often the same items flagged in building inspections or a pre-sale house inspection. Catching these early can cut costs and headaches. Schedule your house inspection with Palmerston North House Inspections in Longburn at 0800 000 413.
