Why Strata Buyers Need More Insight

Purchasing into strata means inheriting the building's past maintenance and its future capital works. We inspect beyond the lot so you know what levies and liabilities are on the horizon.

Our reports translate technical issues into clear advice for owner-occupiers, investors, and strata committees.

Individual Lot Review

  • Internal walls, ceilings, floors, and finishes
  • Kitchens, bathrooms, and waterproofed areas
  • Balconies, courtyards, windows, and doors
  • Services within the lot (electrical, plumbing, HVAC)

Common Property Assessment

  • Roofing, gutters, external facades, and balconies
  • Basements, parking, corridors, and lifts
  • Shared services, plant rooms, fire safety, and drainage
  • Landscaping, retaining walls, and water ingress risks

How Our Strata Inspections Work

1

Briefing & Records Review

We review strata documents, maintenance plans, and known issues so the inspection targets areas with the highest risk.

2

On-Site Inspection

We inspect both the lot and common property, capturing photos and notes that tie back to ownership responsibilities.

3

Risk & Cost Commentary

We identify urgent repairs, forecast likely levies, and highlight compliance concerns that could impact insurance or resale value.

4

Briefing & Next Steps

We walk you through findings so you can negotiate, budget for levies, or push the owners corporation for action.
