Pre Purchase Inspections
Pre Purchase Inspections
Buying a home?
Our thorough and fully independent pre-purchase inspections will reveal exactly what an agent or seller doesn’t want you to see. We identify major and minor structural defects, and in many cases, identify defects that have been concealed. We discover faults, which if left unchecked, could end up costing you thousands of dollars in repairs in the future.
Selling a home?
Pre-sale inspections have also become very popular. By using the same format as the pre-purchase inspection we enable you, the seller, to repair any issues we detect during the inspection. By doing this, you’ll increase the value of your property, and maximise your selling price!
Don’t wait for those small repair jobs to turn into major defects. Get your residential or commercial property inspected!
