What is a Pre-Sale Inspection?

Looking to sell? Before your property hits the market, a pre-sale inspection is just as important as a pre-purchase one. It's conducted by our team before you list, so you can identify and fix the issues a buyer's inspector would otherwise use to negotiate the price down.

  • Structural Insights — an evaluation of the foundation, walls, roof and overall structure.
  • Timber Pest Analysis — detection of termites, wood decay and other timber-related concerns.
  • Defect Identification — documentation of existing and potential issues affecting safety and value.
  • Actionable Recommendations — clear guidance on repairs, maintenance and pest control.
  • Negotiation Power — fix issues on your terms, before a buyer's report becomes their leverage.

Why you need a pre-sale inspection

  • Peace of Mind — list your property knowing exactly what condition it's in.
  • Hidden Issues — fix structural and timber pest problems before they become a buyer's bargaining chip.
  • Negotiation Power — a clean report means less room for buyers to talk the price down.
  • Investment Protection — go to market with an accurate picture of your property's value.
  • Long-Term Savings — address issues on your schedule, not under sale pressure.

Don't let a buyer's inspector control the conversation — get ahead of it with your own report.
