Selling or buying? Here’s our comprehensive property inspection checklist!
Buying or selling a property can be an adventure – one that’s exciting but sometimes overwhelming. That’s why we’ve crafted this detailed inspection checklist. For sellers, it’s a great way to spot any areas for improvement before listing. For buyers, it’s a smart way to make sure there aren’t any surprises waiting. Here’s a taste of what’s on the list:
Foundation check
Look for cracks, sinking, or water issues; a strong foundation is essential.
Roof condition
Is it watertight? Look for missing shingles or signs of wear.
Electrical & plumbing systems
Test outlets, inspect plumbing for leaks, and check water pressure.
Interior review
Walls, ceilings, and floors should be in good shape, free of mold, and structurally sound.
Outdoor condition
Evaluate landscaping, drainage, and the structural integrity of fences or decks.
Whether you’re prepping for sale or evaluating a purchase, a thorough inspection is key.
Auction, tender, or negotiation – Which selling method is right for you?
Choosing to sell your property through auction, tender, or negotiation can be a strategic move that aligns with your timeline and goals. Here’s a quick look at each option:
Auction
Great for sellers aiming for a quick sale with the potential for competitive bidding. Auctions are transparent, with all buyers present in one place. Plus, when the hammer falls, you have an unconditional sale.
Tender
With a tender, buyers submit their offers confidentially. It’s an ideal route if you’re after the best price but prefer privacy. You set the conditions, and once offers are reviewed, you can choose the best one without the pressure of on-the-spot decision-making.
Negotiation
In a private negotiation, you have more control over the process, allowing flexibility in terms and price. It’s a great way to engage interested buyers and reach a mutual agreement without the public spectacle of an auction.
Each method has its perks, and our team can guide you on the best fit for your property and goals. Discover your selling strategy.

"Scott and Fiona were great. They were easy to deal with, hardworking, and really helped the sale go smoothly. They helped a lot to ensure that the final process went smoothly, and went above and beyond when needed. I'd use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell."
