It will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.
