Hidden leaks, movement in foundations, and unsafe add-ons are common and they do not show in a quick walkthrough. Lower Hutt House Inspections carries out a pre-purchase house inspection at the offer stage or during the cooling off period, checks the interior, exterior, roof space, and subfloor, takes moisture readings, gives a clear report you can use to negotiate or step back, and we recommend you make your offer subject to building inspections.
We are based in Belmont and we follow industry standards with a methodical visual check of all accessible areas, detailed photos, moisture readings, and clear recommendations. Many buyers book too late or rely on seller disclosures or a handy friend, and that can lead to costly repairs after settlement or a missed chance to renegotiate.
