Services

Pre-purchase inspection INQUIRE

A pre-purchase inspection is conducted for the buyer after a purchase offer, as a condition on the offer.  You’ve found a home you love, but you’re concerned about possible issues which may impact your investment. A qualified home inspector will provide the information to take an informed decision with greater peace of mind. The inspection also helps you understand how your home works, and minimize surprises on moving in.

Pre-sale inspection INQUIRE

Pre-sale, or pre-list inspections are conducted for the seller before listing the property for sale, informing them about the home’s overall condition, and any issues which may affect the sale price, allowing them the opportunity to carry out repairs prior to sale. This also helps sellers choose the best listing price, and prepares them for negotiation with buyers.   Sellers sometimes choose to share their pre-sale inspection with interested buyers, providing them with valuable information, and demonstrating the seller’s diligence and transparency.
