"I'd like to say Adam from Inquest has done an excellent job on property inspection and the report - this has help me a lot making a bargain with the vendor as every single problem was clearly stated from the report as well as the estimation of the cost of repair works to offsetting from the purchase price."

"Both Adam and Jodi were wonderful to work with! Jodi was super responsive in getting back to me and went the extra mile to help get things organised in such a timely manner.

Adam was so thorough in his report and included a lot of detail to help us make an informed decision as to whether we buy a house. The report was set out in a really easy to understand way and read smoothly (especially for someone without any building knowledge!). Throughout the hole process, Adam was available to answer the many questions I had and make sure I understood everything. I have definitely learnt a lot through this and that’s thanks to Adam

I’m so glad we chose to work with Inquest, I would recommend them to anyone. If we were to look at purchasing another home, we would 100% come back!

Thank you so much Jodi and Adam - you are very much appreciated ????"

"Absolute pleasure and great reassurance to have the support of these professionals. Jodi is as attentive and proactive as can be and Adam gave us all the required info and more to help us deciding buying a property. If we would have taken the seller's builders report at face value (as suggested by the agent) we would have had some nasty surprises. Can't recommend enough!"

The work was performance by Jamie, who was brilliant. Very thorough in his report, photos and commentary. Follow up call provided a lot of insight about the house and certain findings, spoken in such a way to really simplify complex building details.

With so many building inspection companies offering varying levels of thoroughness, rest assured that Inquest is a cut above the rest in terms of quality, service and professionalism. We would highly recommend!"

"It was really easy to get an inspection ordered and the report came through very quickly. Jodi is a pleasure to deal with. We've ordered inspection reports from two other companies previously and this was by far the best in terms of expert detail, thoroughness and just overall great service. Costs a little more but well worth it. The time to talk through with Jamie after we got our report was an invaluable part of the service and experience. So was Adam re matters on the LIM. Would thoroughly recommend Inquest if you want responsive service, a thorough expert report and follow up and deeply knowledgeable people who can explain complex things in simple ways. Thank you Jodi, Jamie and Adam."

"Adam's inspections on two properties we considered purchasing were thorough and he gave practical recommendations for what we should do next. His reports were easily understandable to the layperson, and he provided helpful information as a follow-up each time. For one property in particular, his inspection turned up issues with the house’s foundation that would have cost a lot of time, effort, and dollars to fix (at least $100,000), and after attempted negotiations with the vendor, we had no qualms in walking away from the deal - knowing we had done due diligence on all fronts. Thanks Adam!"

"Adam and Jodi provided an excellent service within a very tight time frame in order to help get our house purchase over the line. The report was thorough and turned around quickly. Of particular note was the drone overflight of the house which enabled high-resolution photos of the roof condition to be taken when direct inspection would have otherwise been impossible.

But what really set Inquest apart for me was the degree of follow-up Adam provided. Having read his report, I had a (long!) list of questions and Adam kindly gave up his lunch hour to sit on the phone with me and clarify them all. As a first home buyer who struggles to know which end of a hammer is which, this was absolutely invaluable.

They're not the cheapest option we found (although that was partly because we were in such a hurry), but the level of service more than justifies any extra cost. I wouldn't hesitate to use Inquest again and would particularly recommend them to first home buyers who don't have much building knowledge, as a debrief from Adam will demystify a lot of things as well as giving you the beginnings of a maintenance program for your new house going forwards."

"My first contact with Inquest was months before I actually engaged them to provide the first of six verbal building reports on different properties (over the last year) and I was so impressed with Jodi’s friendly demystification of what I was finding a difficult process to navigate it was a no brainer for me to call back when I found somewhere I wanted to make an offer on.

During this time, I’ve come to rely on Adam’s expert knowledge and our conversations have given me the confidence to make risk-based assessments (eg. possible asbestos issues, small structural issues etc) ahead of making offers (or deciding not to). In one instance, the day before submitting an offer the Agent had to disclose that another potential buyer had alluded to under floor water issues found by their builder but (the potential buyer) wouldn’t give any details. Having already had a full and frank discussion with Adam, I felt comfortable ignoring this as noise, when in other circumstance it would have made me question putting an offer in.

Adam and Jodi have consistently gone above and beyond to accommodate short notice inspection requests (which happens a lot in this market) and they’ve always been a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend them and the service they provide."

"I requested Inquest to do a pre-purchase property inspection on a large house, with many complicated features (monoclad, rooflines etc). I'm a Kiwi currently overseas, so what I needed was more demanding than just a regular report, given I could not see the property in person. Overall, I concluded that Adam and Jodi are truly excellent, and I would strongly recommend their services without any hesitation. The report which Adam provided was very thorough and detailed, and provided an excellent basis upon which to engage with the vendor. In this regard, others such as the real estate agent have also commented to me positively on the report. Adam made himself available on a number of occasions to go over the report, even with difficult time differences, and helped me with decision making. He also went back to the property and did a second inspection, and engaged with the vendor and his builder. He gave practical advice and was solutions-focused. Jodi has been extremely helpful, flexible, and quick to reply on every occasion, and managed to get Adam into see the property very fast. Their service is personable and highly professional, and I couldn't be happier. Thanks!"

"I love Inquest. I was referred to them by my attorneys when I was purchasing a home from the US and had to do everything over the phone. I bought a home sight unseen so it was an overwhelming experience as well as trying to move to a new country. I really needed great people to help me through home inspection. Jodi was incredibly helpful on first call and responded so fast to whatever questions I had. Adam walked me through report and answered all my questions. I have since moved to NZ and bought 4th home all of which inspected by Adam and he will be my go to person for all future inspections. I have had last minute inspection requests, questions they have responded to fast and accommodated days I needed them to be onsite. I will not work with any other but Inquest. They are professional, honest, hardworking duo who have enormous knowledge and experience in home inspection. I've walked properties with Adam and picked his brain about repairs, costs etc and he's always very honest and helpful in explaining issues and giving you his perspective if it was his purchase. The reports are detailed, easy to understand. Home inspection reports are not the easiest, shortest or the most fun to read but a must read when buying a home. To have report that is laid out in a way an ordinary person can sift through to the issues fast is incredibly helpful. I think if you want a home inspector that you can actually understand and not be overwhelmed by all the lingo Adam is your person. I view Inquest as part of my team and I don't think I will find better team than Adam and Jodi."

"I engaged Adam from Inquest to help me find some solutions to why water was getting into our rental. He came and was so thorough and detailed and stepped me through the solutions and in what order to undertake them. They also turned around an asbestos test in record time without any fuss.
The best part is as he doesn't do the work he is inspecting so you know that you are getting independent advice.
He was onto the job the day after contacting inquest and called me with very detailed instructions that evening.
He even offered to pop back and check once we have dug out where some of the drainage is to go,
I wish I had known about inquest years ago as would have saved me thousands on undertaking jobs on my rentals that possibly didn't need doing.
I thoroughly recommend these guys. Probably the best company to do with housing I have ever dealt with.It was totally money well spent.

Communications were fantastic and they were ready and willing to do our job even though it wasn't quite exactly what the do; we needed an inspection of all the roof timber after we noted a big sag over a window and cracks after the earthquakes in the timber up in the roof space."

"Adam looked at a house that we’re planning to buy. Initially I thought it was just a tick in the box inspection. Turned out we got valuable information of the house condition that made us reconsider the price. From his report and conversation with him (very clear and down to earth even to myself who’s layman on this area) - we realize the condition of the house and the right pricing we should bid for."

"Adam did an awesome job of providing a home pre-purchase builders inspection report. The report was very informative and the inspection was thorough. Excellent response as we had a deadline for making an offer and he made sure to get this to us with time to spare. It was also really appreciated that he spent time on the phone to discuss the report and answer any questions that we had. Overall top quality service, would use again."

"Inquest provided a seamless, engaged service throughout the whole building inspection process which was such a relief as first-home buyers with no idea what we were doing. Communication was crisp, clear and friendly. The report was very thorough and easy to follow through all platforms; Mobile, online and printed but Adam offered to read us through it too which helped. Have already recommended to my fellow home buyers and will continue to do so"
