Testimonial

Hi Pete,
Well what a disaster. Just goes to show I’m no judge when it comes to picking a house. If you hadn’t found the problem under the house before it was too late. That would have cost me an absolute fortune, I know the bank would not have given me any more money to have it all fixed. The engineers quoted over $45,000 to underpin the foundations and replace the damaged sections of brickwork. I owe you big time Pete, you just saved me from financial ruin. I’ll be getting you to inspect the next one I find even before I make the offer. I still can’t believe how thorough your inspection and report is. I’ll be in touch soon.

Regards,
Geoff Longman, East Kew Victoria.

Dear Dayle,
I had to thank you for your advice. Using the report you did on Tuesday I used it to renegotiate the contract price by $13,300. Although I tried for $15,000 I still think I got a good deal. I will take you up on the half price pre-settlement inspection offer, I’ll let you know when.
Thanks again for attention to detail and the promptness. I was amazed to get the full report with the photo protection package on Tuesday afternoon, I reckon you blokes have got the inspection business sown up. I will be telling every one I know about you.

Cheers,
Robert Johnston. Brighton Tasmania.

Hi Leon,
Just a note to say thank you for a great effort, both Liz and I really appreciated your detailed explanations at the property, but we are overwhelmed by the detail in the report and you were right, the photo protection package was well worth it. We managed to renegotiate $5,800 off the price to allow for us to make the repairs you highlighted in the report. Thank you again and good luck with your business, you offer a great service.

Leon,
I must say the inspection was a real eye opener for me, I’m really glad I took your advice and come with you on the inspection, I had no idea it would be so thorough and I learnt so much about the house. I know I would never go into all the places we did ever again. You know the best part was knowing a lot more about the house is was able to explain all the problems we found and get them to fix them all before we move in. I would have had to get contractors in to do the repairs and we all know how expensive and unreliable they are. I wanted to thank you and tell you I will be recommending you to everybody I know.

I’m Seriously Impressed...

Hi James, RE; Old Monbulk Rd, Belgrave

Thank you again for your work. The report is great!! I’m seriously impressed with the speed in which you took to complete the report – including the design and layout of the document. The report – I feel – is also very thorough and we thank you for that. It’s been great to work with you and I trust the job has been completed more than satisfactorily

Thanks, Tamara Desiatov & Rodney W Cheuk

They All Told Me How Good You Were...
and They Were Right!

You were first recommended to me by the agent, then my bank manager gave me your business card, then I was talking to the tea lady at the office and she told me you did a report for her son last week. Now after seeing what you do first hand I have to agree with them all. Excellent service, the best building report I’ve ever seen, the verbal report was also great but it was the report detail and the advice you gave me that really saved me thousands and the 5 Star Rating really confirmed it in my own mind. I know we have got a great deal.

Thank you very much and sorry for all the phone calls to get your advice

WOW – What a Fantastic Service... and I Saved $8,000

Dear IPI, WOW, what a fantastic service, I only rang to order the inspection yesterday and not only have you done the job but I’ve already got the completed report. I’ve just watched the DVD and it really does everything, I’ve inspected the unit three times but the DVD showed me stuff I hadn’t noticed before. We managed to get them to agree on getting the new roof put on before settlement so that saved us about $8,000 and we don’t have anything else to worry about. Rob was fantastic to talk to and made it easy for us to understand everything. I still can’t get over how quick you made it happen. I only made one phone call. I have to say it again, WOW what a great service.

Hello Martyn, I am writing to thank you for your recent inspection of the property, Kellie and I intend on purchasing in Hoppers Crossing. Your professional approach and thorough inspection with informative discussion on the good aspects along with problems and potential problems of the property, helped give us the confidence and peace of mind to commit to purchasing our first house.

Your Summary and detailed report will be a great aid to addressing issues of concern with the property, your tips on fixing areas of concern showed your experience in building and where most welcome.

I would be happy to recommend your Independent Property Inspections to any potential house buyer/renovator and again thank you for your service and advice.

Sincerely,  Scott Emanulesson.

Thank you for the report. It is very detailed and complete. Much appriciated.
"Buying a property is possibly one of the most expensive investments for any Australian. Hence getting everything right by having the best and most knowledgeable people assisting you during this exciting yet daunting time is extremly important. I found Martyn Owen provided me with a very professional, friendly and unbiased service. His extensive knowledge of the building and structural industry was very reasuring and I was confident that I was in the best of hands. I would recommend anyone embarking on the purchase of any property to first seek the service and recommendations of Martyn Owen who will no doubt provide you with the same excellent service that he provided myself."

Hi Peter, I just wanted to send you this email to say thank you for all your help.

When I rang and asked your about a building inspection, I wasn't sure what to expect, as this was my first property purchase. Your explanation about the process,and what to expect and when was really helpful. Your Verbal report covered all the relevent aspects of the house, enabling me to make a fast informed decision prior to submitting my bid. The speed from initial phone call to report was also faster than I expected, which was great.The written report was clear and easy to understand, giving me helpful advice on things I might like to get done, and reassuring me that the structure itself was basically sound. I wanted to say thank you for your help in making my first house purchase easier.
