We help safeguard property buyers against investing in fault-ridden properties, as the reports reveal hidden problems a property may have.

While most investors understand how crucial it is to get a professional building and pest inspection on their potential investment, many find reading and interpreting the results difficult.

According to Madan Deshmukh, property has termite damage, for example, you could be up for tens of thousands of dollars in repairs. “Major structural issues can be very costly to fix, so it’s worthwhile finding out those sorts of things up front.”

The other benefit of a property inspection is that if no significant issues are identified, but several minor problems are noted, the report can become a powerful negotiating tool in regard to the purchase price.
