This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.
