This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.
