How it works for building inspectors

Every booking has a deadline. Start with the date.

Pre-purchase inspections are booked against due-diligence and finance deadlines, often with only a few days to spare. FirstVoice asks for that date first and only offers times that meet it.

  1. Asks for the due-diligence or unconditional date, then the address and house type
  2. Offers times that fit the deadline and books the inspection
  3. Offers add-ons like meth testing if you provide them
  4. Explains in plain terms what a visual inspection to NZS 4306 does and doesn't cover
  5. Handles agents arranging access, and flags deadlines inside 48 hours to you straight away
