When purchasing a home or commercial property among the critical actions to take is obtaining a Building Inspection. If it's a home for the first time or an investment opportunity or commercial property, knowing the true condition of the structure provides buyers the confidence needed to take the proper steps.
At JC Consultants, we specialize in producing independent building reports that arm you with the facts--free of external influences or biases. Our work is in line to the NZS 4306 Residential Property Inspection Standard, which ensures that all inspections meet industry-recognized benchmarks for precision and accuracy.
Why Building Inspections Matter
Pre-purchase building inspections serve as a safeguard against unexpected cost or structural issues. A thorough inspection will reveal red flags early--such as leaks or workmanship issues, foundation issues, or inadequate drainage--that might otherwise go unnoticed during the routine inspection.
After our comprehensive site visit, clients receive a builders report which acts as a reference guide for their home. The reports are formatted to be clear, and use the traffic light system to identify high, medium or low risks and are accompanied by photographs that highlight key results.
