Independent pre-purchase inspections help you make informed decisions


Buying a house is a big investment, whether it's your first home, a new family home or a move to downsize later in life. Getting an independent pre-purchase property inspection allows you to make informed decisions about the property with a clear picture of its condition.

First Building Reports offer comprehensive building inspections for prospective buyers across Christchurch, carried out by a Licenced Builder with years of experience in the construction sector.

If you are selling a property we can also undertake a pre-sale house inspection to give you an understanding of any work that may need to be done before selling.

Pre-sale reports are also useful to get better informed as part of the process for auction sales.

Property Inspection


Our comprehensive pre-purchase or pre-sale building inspections cover both the interior and exterior of your property, looking at key areas including the roof and roof space, cladding and the subfloor. Our detailed property inspection report will cover the condition of each area and any next steps needed to make it safe or improve it.
