Before You Buy a Portable Home, Check the Paperwork
Many portable and expandable homes are sold with big claims — “NZ compliant”, “consent-ready” or “off-grid-ready” — but buyers should check the paperwork, inclusions and delivery details before paying a deposit.
Use our plain-English checklist to understand what to ask for, what to compare and what to confirm before you choose a supplier.
