If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you 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 due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.
