When purchasing a home or commercial property, an of the critical actions to take is obtaining a Home inspection. Whether it's a first home or an investment opportunity or commercial property knowing the actual condition of the structure provides buyers the confidence needed to make the right decision.
At JC Consultants, we specialize in providing independent building reports that provide you with the facts--free of any bias or influence from outside. Our work is aligned with the NZS 4306 Residential Property Inspection Standard, ensuring all inspections meet industry-recognized benchmarks in terms of accuracy and precision.
Why Building Inspections Matter
Building inspections prior to purchase are an insurance against the possibility of unexpected costs or structural issues. A thorough inspection will reveal red flags early--such as leaks or workmanship issues, foundation issues, or insufficient drainage, which could otherwise be overlooked during a routine viewing.
After our comprehensive site visit, clients receive a builders report which acts as a guide for their property. These reports are structured to be clear, and use an indicator system of traffic lights to show moderate, high, or low concerns and are further supplemented by photographs to show key conclusions.
