100%"We engaged Duane to carry out the building inspection on two of the properties we wanted to buy. One was brand new and the other was around 15 years old. He gave an in depth 70 page report on the condition of each property. This detailed report helped us and dissuaded us from buying the property. The report was an eye opener to us and gave us a different perspective of the items that needs to be looked into before we decide to buy any property"Rating by: Baptist | Rating posted: 29th Nov, 2024 | Contact: Duane Turner | Job date: Nov, 2024Baptist•29th Nov, 2024•More details…

100%"I was amazed how detailed and thorough the building inspection and report was.
Rafael did an awesome job and provided a super detailed 75-page report with photos, the following day.
I gave me a huge amount of confidence when purchasing the house and I would highly recommend using “A Buyers Choice” and Rafeal when getting a building inspection.
I would definitely use them again.

100%"Stephen completed five different building inspections for us over the period of 9 months. Being first home buyers in the crazy property market, we looked at a wide range of different houses in different areas - from brick and tile houses to plaster (monolithic cladding) houses.
Stephen's reports are highly detailed and he is happy to go through and explain issues in more detail over the phone. Stephen was very easy to get in touch with and he was always happy to book in a time for the… building inspections directly with the Real Estate agents.
"
Stephen also turned around the reports very quickly which gave us the peace of mind when needing a quick inspection turnaround for auctions.John Goodrum - NZ Master Franchise Owner responded:"Gosh Matthew five different inspections. You are quite right the market has gone crazy. We truly appreciate your loyalty and hope you have now been successful in your property search.

Matt was informative and transparent from the get-go, provided a quote and detailed explanation of what the inspection would entail, expected timeframes for the written report and toxicology results, and scheduled our inspection at short notice so as to fit in with our required timeline. He contacted the agent to arrange access… to the property himself, confirmed this to us in advance, carried out the inspection and then provided a professional and easy to understand written report on time. We had a few followup questions and Matt was quick to email answers to those, which was very helpful for us as it was our first time buying a house.

95%"Dealing with Duane Turner of ' A Buyer's Choice Home Inspections' was the least stressful part of a very stressful house-hunting endeavour.
He did inspections of two different properties for us in the end and he was really amazing!
Duane was excellent at responding to our requests and communicating with us and the relevant agents, and he was very accommodating with times and arrangements.
His reports were extremely thorough and very detailed, and we felt he went above and beyond in… certain aspects of the inspections. It really helped us to decide on whether or not to pursue purchasing the properties, and in the first instance helped us realise it would have been a bad investment. Phew!
We highly recommend him and we won't go anywhere else when we continue our property search.
Thanks so much Duane!"John Goodrum - NZ Master Franchise Owner responded:"Gosh it's so easy to make a mistake when buying a home.

This was our first time getting an inspection done and Matt definitely took the stress out of it for us, he responded to my initial message on a Sunday and had an inspection booked in with the real estate agent for the following Tuesday.
He carried out the work at the promised time and we had the report 2 days later. The report itself was informative, easy to understand and in depth with lots of… photos.

Both times he was very quick to respond to email/phone communications, he was flexible on timings, and he made the process so easy for us. The reports were sent through so fast and efficiently, and we were very surprised at the level of detail and care that went into collating the reports. They were super thorough and gave us an excellent… indication of the building quality and what needed attention etc. We were especially thankful for Duane's willingness to work around a tight schedule for our last and final building report - we found out at lunchtime Friday that a house we were interested in was going to auction midday Tuesday, however Monday was a public holiday. Duane kindly did the inspection on the public holiday on Monday morning and sent the report through only a few hours later.

Inspection was done on time. He even allowed for my Mrs to go to site after inspection and answered her questions.
He then spent time talking to me answering my concerns as well on another day.All the communication was professionally managed. The report itself was detailed and gave us a good understanding of this property.

100%"Upon reading many positive comments & recommendations for Duane from A Buyer's Choice, we asked him to inspect a property that we had made an offer on.
He was very prompt with communications, and kept us in the loop as to when inspection would be taking place, and when it had been completed.
He delivered his inspection report in the stated timeframe.
His report was very easy to understand even though it was detailed, and his comments were supported with photographs. His layout… of the report was ideal too, first briefly discussing items needing attention/consideration, then followed with the full inspection in detail. He did the follow-up inspection too in a timely manner.

100%"We engaged Duane for a pre-purchase inspection, and I can't praise his sheer professionalism enough. He communicates promptly at every stage of the process, which is key during such a fast-moving and stressful time, and even in the midst of a second COVID lockdown he was only delayed by a day when I was expecting weeks. He does what he says he will in when he says he'll do it, and when you're feeling caught in the whirlpool of promises and delays that is first home buying, that certainty is… not a small thing.
Most importantly, his report was comprehensive and comprehensible, and highlighted a few issues which required remediation. Duane was more than happy to discuss these problems over the phone and suggest options and prices, and armed with this information and his report we were able to go back to the vendor and successfully negotiate for the work to be done at their expense. His thorough report put us in a strong bargaining position, and without it I don't think we would have had the success we did.
In summary, Duane made a complicated, uncertain and stressful time much, much simpler, and I can't recommend his work strongly enough."John Goodrum - NZ Master Franchise Owner responded:"Hi Rob, one of our guiding principles at A Buyer's Choice Home Inspections is "providing you peace of mind".

48%"I engaged this company on the back of the positive reviews but after purchasing and moving into the house have found how poor a job they have carried out and I’m now faced with large costs to remediate items that were not highlighted in the report.
Insulation in the roof is of some brown mud/dust nature and this will need to be replaced by proper wool insulation as it’s useless and does not provide any insulation at all. This will cost me a lot of money and now having settled I can’t… claim it of the seller.
"
Roof gutters had gunk and leaves and are overflowing in rain and water is coming back onto windows. No mention on the report. I now have to install a Downpipe and gutter mesh at my cost coz after settlement I can’t claim from seller.
We relied and paid for a premium job but got a really shoddy experience and are now burdened with costs we shouldn’t have.John Goodrum - NZ Master Franchise Owner responded:"Hello Rohit, thank you for your review. We take our customers feedback very seriously. I am sorry that you feel that the report was not a premium job. I have personally reviewed the report on your property which is a 48 page report with 174 photographs. Ceiling insulation - on page 11 of the report there is a photograph showing good coverage of insulation which is reported as in average condition. The report states that the thickness was measured at 70mm, that no R-Value rating was present and that the insulation does not appear to meet the new Healthy Homes standard required for rental properties. The insulation met the standard when this house was built in the 1990's and so would not be reported as defective. It was reported as not up to Healthy Homes standard. Gutters - on page 12 there is a photograph of leaves in the gutter with the caption under saying - it needs clearing of minor debris. On the same page - Spouting and Downpipe Assessment - it states - There is a small amount of debris build up within the spouting (guttering). While it is not currently a major obstruction there are benefits to having it cleaned. Both of the issues you raised Rohit were covered in the report as described above. I do appreciate you are disappointed that you will be up for the expense of adding extra insulation and have chosen to install gutter mesh and another downpipe. Even clean gutters and another downpipe would not cope with torrential rain as we experienced recently. Please feel free to contact me personally.

100%"Matt was great and has been happy to respond (quickly) to any questions I've had (thanks again Matt!). Just a note if you're looking to have an inspection done to help you get the best value out of the report - ask the agent to ask the owner/occupier make all areas of the house and fittings accessible for the inspection (ie the closet if thats where the roof access is). Matt wasn't able to get into the ceiling or check the stove due to not being able to touch or move the owners possessions so… I've had to make a decisions on faith (and his best efforts with reaching into the ceiling with only his camera) regarding those areas. If you're looking at a cross-lease perhaps have your agent check on entry points to the underneath of the building and have them arrange access as that's also an area not able to be covered in my case."John Goodrum - NZ Master Franchise Owner responded:"Thank you for your 100% review Cherie.

100%"We used services of Duane from A Buyers Choice for our first home purchase.
We were working against a tight timescales and Duane delivered ahead of time having made the inspection visit within 24 hours of the initial call and worked through the weekend on the written report. He called us just before the inspection to ask about any particular areas of focus and after he’d conducted the visit it to share his initial observations.
The written report was very easy to follow and recommendations… for remediation of findings clear.
Duane also verbally gave us an idea where the property stands in comparison to houses in the area of the same age and built using similar materials.
The Valuer recommended a Safe and Sanitary Report (which the lender insisted on) and we called on Duane’s services again to ensure compliance. And on tight timescales again.
The speed of response, the professionalism and Duane’s attention to detail is very impressive and the professional liability insurance is higher than competitors’. The jobs were reasonably priced and worth every cent spent.
If it wasn’t for Duane we would have struggled to get our offer across the line on time. And the Builders Report gave us a piece of mind - much needed when you buy your first home for a substantial amount.
Thanks Duane and hope to do business with you again!"John Goodrum - NZ Master Franchise Owner responded:"Hello Zen, we truly appreciate you using Duane and A Buyer's Choice Home Inspections for your first home inspection.

I’m very happy with his service. He was very professional and quick to respond to our enquiries.

He was very patient in answering our calls and explaining the issues to us to help as make an informed decision about the house.

Duane is an absolute expert in his field. He is very digilent with an eye for detail. His work ethic is beyond satisfactory going the extra mile to provide precise details and evidence so that any other builder or contractor can read all key areas for concern without… even visiting the property.

One of the houses that we looked at appeared to be a tidy dwelling and we had gone so far as to pay the deposit. Duane spotted serious issues with plumbing and water damage (independently estimated at a cost of $25,000.00) We believe Duane's experience, knowledge, and commitment to thoroughness was key to identifying this issue which was hidden beneath floor coverings and underfloor… insulation. He saved us from a very costly mistake.

100%"I have known Duane for a while, but never needed his services until lately. I had always heard all about all the inspections that he does and didn't really give much thought to what the report actually looks like.
After Duane arrived at the property exactly on time (even though it was in Hamilton) and inspected the property, he was more thorough than I could have ever imagined.
When I received his report a couple of days later, I was amazed to find a 68 page report which contained every… single little detail about the property. Nothing had been overlooked, and everything he checked was not just a simple look and touch, but a detailed inspection. A day later the Meth Test report arrived and again, extremely thorough and undoubtedly accurate.
If you are going to be spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on a property, you want to make sure that this small investment for a building inspection is done right, and done properly. I would highly recommend Duane and would never look elsewhere.
Thank you Duane and I look forward to working with you again.

He explained that the franchise had received negative publicity (there was a FairGo piece on a different (!) licensee), and that he was worried about any potential credibility issues this could create for us. I commended him on his integrity and we ended up using the services of a different company for the initial inspection.… However, the other company provide a substandard report, missed whole areas, and overall didn't give us confidence.
With little time left to meet the conditions of the purchase, I called Duane again and explained the situation. Within hours he had organised a site visit, and within days we had the full and very comprehensive report.

I found him to be polite and frank, and thorough - and I recommend him to others who need a residential builders report done.

He came twice to our home to look at a potential problem before satisfying itself that the issue was not major and could be easily dealt with. His service is the first home inspection that I have paid for that I felt I got a genuine evaluation of the property.
He is also a very nice person and easy to work with.

Kevin also gave me some good advice on a number of areas across the house and his… quick response back with the details I needed was excellent.

I am glad that I could find similar, positive reviews on 'No Cowboys' beforehand and also highly recommend this business for a home inspection."Rating by: Euclid | Rating posted: 8th Aug, 2014 | Contact: Duane Turner | Job date: Aug, 2014Euclid•8th Aug, 2014•More details…

100%"I called Duane to get a building inspection done and was expecting to have to wait for a few days at least, He made an appointment for the next day, arrived on time with the Real Estate agent and was already starting the inspection which was great. I found Duane to be very thorough and always informing me as he went, very professional, easy to approach and discussed any concerns I had.
I will be recommending Duane and A Buyers Choice to any family/friends that are looking for a property… inspector.

Gerard Naude inspected the home of my choice and must admit that he did a very praise-worthy job! Gerard was professional, timely and had a keen eye for details. He produced the deliverables within the specified… deadline with no compromise in the findings or report. He was even willing to go the extra mile to indicate the defects in person (as I was not around when the inspection was carried out). Even the vendor's property agent was full of praises for Gerard.

100%"We were in the process of looking for a new home and when we found one, we needed to get a builders report. We happened to be at an open home when we met Sarah who duly gave us her card with a phone number.
When we found our home, we duly got in touch with Sarah and asked if we could arrange a report being carried out for us.
This was promptly arranged and the report covered everything from the roof, all outside the home as well as the interior including just about every appliance, window… catches everything involved with the home.
It was an 84 page report and it really made us feel secure in our purchase and would have no hesitation in recommending this firm to any body that is in need of getting a builders report carried out with such diligence.
Thank you very much Sarah and Duane.

WhIle I was fairly confident the property was in good repair, it is foolish not to do due diligence. Not only did Duane do a thorough, prompt and competent inspection, he gave me great confidence to purchase the property, and a few tips for on-going maintenance (and having won the auction I will use these as a guide).
This is the second time I have used this company and both times Duane has been the… inspector, great guy, honest, considered and seems to know all there is re property.
