First Home Buyer

Dominic Crea helped me inspect a home that I was interested in. He did a great job organising the inspection and gave me a follow up call promptly regarding his findings, detailing which issues I had to address as a matter of priority. He was honest and a wonderful professional.
Thanks Dom!

First Home Buyer

Thank you to Phil for doing a building inspection on my first purchase. It gave me peace of mind and I was able to look into the advice before I purchased. I found the photos in the report really helpful to understand what was checked. I received a phone call to tell me what was done, and the report was sent to me within a couple of hours. Thank you Phil!

Two inspections - both excellent

published

Used John from the Marrickville office twice recently. Decided not to proceed with the first property but bought the second. Both inspections were on time, thorough, well explained, well photographed and John was available to confirm and expand on a few items after the inspection by phone

Highly recommend - thorough and detailed advice, goes above and beyond

published

We enlisted Darren's services to help us in the purchase of a new home. He made himself available out of hours, to assist us through a potential issue to help us determine if we wanted to go ahead with the purchase of the property. Without his advice and assistance on navigating this, we would not have been able to appropriately move forward with the purchase of the property. When it came time for the building report, he was extremely thorough and took the time to walk us through all of his findings. He was detailed, professional and personable. Thank you Darren for assisting us!

Very Satisfied

published

As a First Home buyer I wanted someone who would do a thorough house inspection and more importantly let me know the expenses that I can look forward after moving into my new home. Bill Veljanowski from Casula was extremely professional in his approach. By the end of the inspection he had already given me a fair idea of what I was getting into If I were to go ahead with the purchase.

The Inspection report was comprehensive and listed out the defects in details with supporting pictures. Needless to say it also helped me in negotiating a price reduction with the vendor.

Pre-purchase Home Inspection

I had a pre-purchase report on a home that I am buying. The inspection was carried out by David Piva.
David did an extremely thorough report and gave me detailed verbal information at the conclusion of the inspection. The written report is of the highest standard.

David was friendly, prompt and extremely easy to deal with. I would certainly use David if I ever needed another report

Short notice and a quick quality turnaround

published

Phil was able to do our inspection at short notice and was flexible to work around our schedule. He came along with us for our pre-settlement inspection and provided us some great advice on what maintenance we should prioritise for when we move in. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend, he got up in the roof and under the floor to check everything out he could and got us our report back the same day. Two thumbs up from us.

Jay is not only professional but friendly and was available the next day which was great. He paid attention to detail and wrote a thorough report. He saved us a lot of hassle by having identified issues that we didn't notice ourselves. Great outcome... Highly recommended !

Dominic had my best interests at heart and gave the best detailed building report. As soon as I contacted him for a competitive quote he immediately contacted the real estate agent to inspect the property as quickly as he good. I highly recommend both Jim's building inspections and Dominic.

The Service was very good, it was done exceeding our expectation. The inspection was ordered for pest and the report was widely furnished with more technical information in regards with some building element's issue which is highly appreciated.

Hi
I am building with one of the major builder and they reassured me that they have their own 3rd party inspectors to check through all the stages of build from checking of materials used as in contract till handover. But of course I would not take their words for it. Especially when there are so many inexperienced tradies around that go for fast job and fast money! Do you do such full stage inspection? How much will it cost and for which stage? Thanks matey!

Hi Elle, I totally agree with you, do not trust what the builder says regardless of the size, they always try to cover their fedects unless it’s too obvious or you bring it up. We did not do a full stage review, we only did a final stage inspection but even so lots of defects were identified, some of which you would never be aware of! It cost us only a couple of hundreds and it’s well worth it. The inspector gave us a very detailed inspection report plus lots of advice on how to deal with the builder which is very useful. Hope my answer helps.

Hi Ellen,

Z. Chen seems to agree with you, and I have to say, so do we. You want someone in your corner. We can certainly help you out here. In order to provide a quote, I need to get the local consultant to reach out to you directly and discuss your exact needs and offer a tailored solution. If you would like me to do this, you can email us at [email protected] and provide the property address (lot number is fine) and your best phone number to catch you on.

Hi Ellen,
I totally again with Z.Chen.
My builder promised my wife and I that he would build our master piece, and just before the build started I said I was getting my own private inspector in and said that I'd have to pay a admin fee to allow the inspector on-site. So that scared us off as that fee wasn't in our budget. We do kick ourselves for not getting every stage done, but we are so glad that we did get the final inspection done as there were so many defects that I didn't even see and I would visit the property every 3rd day. We were ment to be settling this friday but thats no longer happening due to all the problems that were found.
I highly recommend that you do get every stage checked yes it may cost some $$$ but don't do the same mistake that I did. Hope this can help
