This will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.
