This assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.
