Frequently Asked Questions About Pre-Purchase Building Inspection

What does a pre-purchase house inspection involve?

A pre-purchase house inspection is a careful check of a home’s condition done before you commit to buying. Like other house inspections and building inspections, it looks at the structure, roof, plumbing, and electrical systems to uncover hidden problems, with a scope similar to a pre-sale house inspection. For peace of mind before you buy, contact Christchurch House Inspections in Southshore at 0800 846 525.

Why do homebuyers need a pre-purchase inspection?

A pre-purchase inspection–similar to a pre-sale house inspection–shows the home’s real condition, so you can find issues early and avoid expensive surprises after closing. These house inspections, often called building inspections, can also give you more pull in price talks or help you ask for repairs or credits. Call Christchurch House Inspections in Southshore at 0800 846 525 to schedule your inspection today.

When should I schedule a pre-purchase inspection?

Schedule the inspection as soon as your offer is accepted, but before the contract is binding.

To set up your building inspection or pre-sale house inspection, call Christchurch House Inspections in Southshore at 0800 846 525.

How detailed is the pre-purchase house inspection report?

The report covers all accessible areas of the property with clear findings, including the structural parts, roofing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems.

For a thorough report–whether for house inspections, building inspections, or a pre-sale house inspection–contact Christchurch House Inspections at 0800 846 525.

Can a pre-purchase inspection help you negotiate the sale price?

This is true for house inspections, building inspections, and any pre-sale house inspection. Don’t miss the chance–call Christchurch House Inspections in Southshore at 0800 846 525 to book your inspection.

What problems are typically uncovered in pre-purchase inspections?

About Us

Hidden defects and missed code items in Christchurch can stall a sale, delay permits, or set back an insurance claim. Christchurch House Inspections carries out building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that find problems early and help you move forward with clear next steps.

Our inspectors are licensed and insured and know how homes in Christchurch are built and age. We check every accessible space, test heating and cooling, plumbing, and electrical, scan for moisture, look at roof coverings, structure, and drainage, go on roofs when safe, enter crawl spaces, and use thermal imaging, moisture meters, and drone photos when useful, then deliver reports the same day or by morning.

You get a same day photo report, repair priorities that separate urgent from later, and a call to walk you through the key risks. We do not skip the roof or the crawl space, we scan wet areas with moisture meters, we check attics and subfloors where safe, and we are independent with fixed pricing and no referral kickbacks, which means no surprises and no pressure.

Our pre-purchase inspection and pre-sale inspection follow a practical method that covers structure, roof, exterior, interior, plumbing, electrical safety, drainage, and moisture so you can avoid blown budgets, failed negotiations, or settlement delays. During building inspections we start outside and on the roof where safe, then the interior, roof space, and subfloor where accessible, we test fixtures and fittings, run moisture scans, note safety risks and maintenance, and we finish with a report that ranks defects by urgency and repair priority.
