It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.
