Pre-Sale Property Inspection Parramatta

  "I highly recommend Dimitrios Moutsos from iSPECT for home building and pest inspections. He recently conducted a P&B inspection for our investment property and did an outstanding job. Dimitrios thoroughly inspected the entire house and identified significant water ingress and damp issues that could have otherwise gone unnoticed. His work was meticulous, professional, and the detailed report he provided was of exceptional quality. Thanks to his expertise, we avoided making a very costly mistake and saved ourselves from purchasing a "lemon" investment property. If you're looking for a reliable and skilled inspector, Dimitrios is the one to call!"

  "Fantastic job and checking everywhere"

  "Requested a building and pest inspection at a very competitive price. Communication was fast and made it easy to book in a time. The report was sent within 24 hours of the inspection and was clear and easy to understand. Would definitely recommend iSPECT."

  "They were really quick and always helpful on the phone, got the inspection done within a day and the report the same day! And I found them to be clearer than all competitors in regards to prices on the website rather than collecting all your info for a quote."

  "Easy to deal with, booked in an inspection super quick and received the report later that same day, highly recommend"

  "Excellent Job !!!"

  "Good service and communication."

  "ISPECT has the most competitive price in the market and it comes with great service. Inspector was on time and he was very thorough . Report received within 24hr which comes with great details with finding and suggestions. Highly recommended."

  "Waste of money. They were super difficult to work with, provided a vague and generic report and missed multiple (obvious) defects. Would not recommend"

  "Waste of time and money. Missed major plumbing defects and serious/dangerous gas leak. DO NOT USE. We now have to pay thousands on our plumbing due to defects not identified by building inspection. Have ridiculous excuses for everything they missed and zero accountability. Report not worth the paper it's printed on"

  "iSPECT were doing a pre-purchase building&pest inspection for me last week. I didn't attend the inspection and I was actually satisfied with the overall quality of the report they provided next day. However, Kamran refused to answer any additional questions about the property he inspected. Looks like a refusal from the company to go that little extra mile with their customer to provide an excellent service. 3 out of 5."

  "Amazing"

  "I met Jez at the property; he was very helpful and experienced. As he said, "he knows what to look for." He knew the building regulations and advised me to place window restrictors on the wind-out windows so they would comply with current building rules. He completed a thorough visual inspection. I would use this company again."

  "Quick service & professional report. I highly recommend."

  "Kmaran did a very thorough job with the inspection. He added all the required photos and discovered hidden issues which anyone else would have missed. He also walked us through the details and helped us understand how to mitigate the issues. We are very glad to have used his services."

  "I recently had a building and pest inspection done by iSPECT, and I couldn't be happier with the service. My first time arranging an inspection. Kamran, the inspector, was extremely thorough and professional. He called me and briefly explained everything in detail and provided a comprehensive report with pictures that were easy to understand. I highly recommend iSPECT and Kamran for anyone needing a reliable inspection service!"

  "I had my inspection complete and report returned to me within 3 days of my intial enquiry. Great service thank you."

  "Quick and easy dealing with. Quick service and next day report available. Highly recommend iSPECT."

  "Quick and efficient service Recommend iSPECT for your building inspections"

  "Extremely unpleasant service experienced with ispect and which impacted the overall property buying process eventually landed up as a lost deal for us. ## Red flags ## 1. Inspector/ispect did not communicate that inspection was partially done. Only came to know about it when report was sent 24 hrs later. 2. Was asked to pay additional charges to get remaining inspection done. This was in addition to the AUD 460 + GST that was paid for the B&P inspection. 3. Reached out to ispect to schedule the remaining part of the inspection. Requested them if it can be carried out same day it was time sensitive. Agent said will call back in 10 mins, never called back. Called them back after 2 hrs but they said the inspection can only be done next day now. Because of the lack of communication from the inspector/ispect team re the partial B&P work done to begin with along with the inability of ispect team to understand the urgency required we lost two days and that led to loosing the property deal. Spoke to their Customer Service/Account manager and she asked to send an email with the details. Did that...its been a week and have not even received an acknowledgment yet. It was a total waste of money & time for the services offered by ispect and personally I would definitely not refer their services to any of my friends and family."

  "Our inspector missed a fare few things for our first buy, building inspection. They have all been small things so far, but they also did report small thing in comparison which makes no sense. For example: missed a bracket in the wet area of a shower that was falling off the wall (and now we can't use that shower until its been repaired), there is cold air coming through a couple of power point sockets, one of the bathroom exhaust fans does not work... to name a few."

  "Really prompt scheduling assistance & report generation!"

  "iSPECT scheduled my building and pest inspection for me at short notice, and provided a quick turnaround. Their report was very thorough. Thanks!"

  "Didn't let me know the place I was buyings roof didn't meet the gutters. Use someone else. When questioned they fobbed it off."

  "When faced with the urgency of a short notice, I turned to iSPECT for a comprehensive building inspection, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the outcome. From start to finish, their professionalism and attention to detail were evident, making the process smooth and reassuring. Upon contacting iSPECT, they swiftly arranged for the inspection, accommodating my tight schedule without compromising on thoroughness. Their team arrived promptly, equipped with all necessary tools and expertise, ready to assess every nook and cranny of the property. After the inspection, I received a comprehensive report detailing their findings, complete with photographs and recommendations. This document not only served as a valuable reference but also provided peace of mind knowing that I had a clear understanding of the property's condition. Overall, my experience with iSPECT exceeded my expectations. Their prompt response, thorough examination, and transparent communication set them apart as a leader in the field of building inspections. Whether you're facing a time crunch or simply seeking peace of mind, I highly recommend their services."

  "Inspector did not call to discuss the details of inspection, and when I called him during business hours, he did not pick his phone and later after closing time, replied that he is not available now. Even the company did not bother to send me the report until I called them asking for it. Very poor service, I would not recommend them at all."

  "Great and thorough report"

  "Good communication and received the report within 24 hours."

  "Real good, found stuff you wouldn't know"

  "I narrowly avoided a major mistake, thanks to iSPECT spotted major structural defects at the property. I called off the purchase immediately."

  "The report I received was detailed & very thorough - they did a very professional job."

  "Great service, was able to book in at short notice. Very warm, kind and knowledgeable inspector. Affordable price, will recommend."

  "Excellent service- very thorough inspection and clear reporting. I really appreciate that the inspector made himself for a detailed discussion afterwards and answered all my questions."

  "Booked my appointment in promptly and the report was very thorough. I called the inspector as had some questions and he was great."

  "Booking of inspection was easy. Kamran was on time. He carried out a very thorough inspection of our off-the-plan apartment prior to settlement, identifying a number of minor defects that were brought to the attention of the estate agent. We likely would not have identified all these ourselves. Very good value for money."

  "They were able to book my inspection the next day and sent my report within a couple of hours. Very helpful!"

  "Rude and unprofessional. I had Tony from iSpect doing a building & pest inspection for me a few weeks ago. When we received the report it showed that the roof and garage had not been checked due to access. Later my real estate agent tells me the roller door to the garage is never locked, it just simply needed to be lifted up and he was standing just out the front of the house if Tony had any troubles. When I called Tony about the problem I was bombarded with him throwing policy numbers at me and trying to lay blame on the real estate agent. Wouldn?t even listen to what I had to say, kept talking over the top of me so much I had to tell him. I find it incredibly unprofessional to not properly check doors and if you?re having issues why don?t you ask the agent 30 meters away from you or at the bare minimum tell me, the one who?s paying you. Then said about the roof that there was no access due to previous rain. PREVIOUS! And it certainly wasn?t much. Chuck a ladder up like every other inspector and check what you can without getting on the roof. As far as I?m concerned this was an incomplete job and above anything I?m just so surprised by Tony?s aggressive approach to customer service. Save your pennies, there are much better companies out there."

  "Process was very smooth and convenient with minimal follow-ups. Report received on time after the inspection."

  "I used APBI to inspect my apartment before purchase. They found only a couple of minor defects. A leak from the shower into the floorboards of two adjoining rooms was not noted in the report. This will cost me $25,000+ to repair. I would not recommend using this company if looking for major issue in a property that you are purchasing."

  "Very disappointed with iSPECT inspection. While the team was quick to respond and arrange inspection, the inspection did not cover the major part of the house - roof including the roof cavity. The excuse by the inspector was that the roof tiles were slippery and the access door to the roof cavity was smaller than acceptable size. When I raised that while not expecting anyone to walk on slippery roof or climb into a tiny confined space, I expected that the inspect attempts a reasonable workaround to at least do a visual assessment, eg put head in the cavity and look with a torch, assess roof tiles from the side of the roof standing on a ladder, I got same excuses and dismissed. I paid full amount but got 2/3 of the work done. Very unprofessional, both inspection and response to feedback."

  "Amazing customer service and also super quick turnaround for report, very happy and highly recommended"

  "Utterly Incompetent Inspection Service by David Roth I regret to inform others of my extremely negative experience with APBI, specifically with an inspector named David Roth, for the inspection of my single-storey property in Melbourne. It was nothing short of a fiasco. David Roth, the inspector, displayed an egregious lack of knowledge in the construction industry. He missed major structural issues that were glaringly obvious, choosing instead to focus on trivial matters like missing nails, while completely overlooking significant structural problems and deviations from the approved building plans. His incompetence led to severe complications as the construction of my home progressed, resulting in substantial alterations to the structure and costly repairs. David Roth's lack of skill and professionalism has had serious repercussions on my project. I strongly advise against using APBI, especially if David Roth is involved. Their service isn't just substandard; it's a dangerous gamble with your property. For anyone in need of building inspections, I urge you to seek a service that is reputable, qualified, and truly professional. Do not risk your property with this company and this inspector."

  "Thank you for doing an exceptional job inspecting my pre-lockup stage house, Kamran. Your attention to detail and professionalism were truly remarkable, and your findings and recommendations were invaluable. I highly recommend your services to anyone in need of a building inspector."

  "APBI were very professional, responded quickly to our request and communicated transparently what their service entailed. Building and pest report was provided within the 24hrs of inspection and we didn't need to chase things around. Would highly recommend"
