It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.
