Pre-Purchase Inspection Tauranga – FAQs
How long does a pre-purchase inspection take?
Most Tauranga inspections take 1–2 hours, depending on property size and access. Larger or older homes may take a little longer.
When will I receive my inspection report?
We aim to deliver your written report within 24–48 hours of the inspection. You’ll receive a clear, easy-to-understand document detailing our findings, photos, and recommendations.
Can I attend the inspection?
Yes — we encourage buyers to attend if possible. It’s a great opportunity to ask questions on-site and get real-time insights from the inspector before you finalise your purchase.
