Take Control Before Buyers Visit

A pre sale building inspection gives Wellington owners an opportunity to deal with uncertainty before the first open home. Repairing a leaking gutter, improving subfloor ventilation or arranging specialist advice can be easier when you are not working against a buyer’s finance deadline.

The inspector assesses safely accessible interiors, exteriors, roofing, roof spaces, subfloors and surrounding site features. Moisture readings are taken around common water-entry points, and any access limitations are recorded. Your pre sale building inspection report separates significant concerns from routine maintenance, helping you decide what to repair, disclose or leave for the next owner.

Support a More Straightforward Sale

A clear pre sale building inspection report can reduce uncertainty during a Wellington property sale. Buyers receive more information about the home, while you are better prepared for questions about maintenance, moisture or visible defects. This can support more informed discussions once offers are presented.

Alert Building Inspections remains available to explain the findings and answer questions about your pre sale home inspection. You can use the report to prioritise repairs, support transparent disclosure and prepare for negotiations with fewer surprises. Book before photography and open homes begin so you have enough time to act on the findings.
