It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.
