HOUSE INSPECTION BEFORE YOUR BUY

Do your home inspection before you buy – do not buy a home without a comprehensive house inspection report!

  • “Because buying a property is such a big decision that can have a massive impact on your financial well-being, it’s best to go into each transaction fully aware of what you’re getting yourself into. Before putting in an offer on any home, consider having the property inspected by a professional who can provide you with a comprehensive list of all the home’s underlying flaws. -ADRIAN GOSLETT, REGIONAL DIRECTOR AND CEO, RE/MAX OF SOUTHERN AFRICA
    Source:  Sunday Times Neighbourhood  Property News
  • A home inspection is essential if you are building, selling, buying or investing in property. Every day houses are being sold and bought with various hidden defects. If you are not a building expert, you won’t know what to look out for and will most likely only focus on the features and obvious aspects needing repair. It’s also very unlikely that you’ll climb into the roof or check for any underlying sources of damage.
  • We recommend Inspect A Home
