This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.
