Pre-Purchase Property Inspection — Know Exactly What You're Buying
Photos and virtual tours can’t tell you everything. Water stains get painted over. Cracks get patched. A “move-in ready” unit can hide problems that only show up after you’ve already signed the deed of sale — and by then, it’s your problem, not the seller’s.
Property Check PH gives buyers an independent, unbiased inspection before you commit — so you know exactly what you’re paying for, with no surprises after turnover.
Why Buyers Trust Property Check PH
- Fast turnaround. Your full report is delivered within 24 hours — critical when you’re on a deadline to decide or negotiate.
- Independent, not tied to the developer, seller, or agent. We report what we find — nothing more, nothing less.
- Buy with confidence from anywhere. Full documentation delivered digitally, ideal if you’re buying from abroad or another city.
- Clear, honest findings. No inflated concerns to upsell you, no glossing over real issues.
What We Check
We conduct a thorough visual inspection using a detailed, room-by-room checklist built specifically for Philippine condos and homes. We’re not an engineering firm, so this isn’t a structural certification — it’s a systematic visual and functional check designed to catch the issues that matter before you sign:
- Entry, locks, walls, ceiling, flooring, odors, dust, and pest signs
- Plumbing and visible signs of past or active water leaks
- Electrical outlets, switches, and breaker panel (visual check)
- Windows, doors, seals, and balcony/railing condition
- Kitchen and bathroom fixtures, drainage, and ventilation
- Aircon condition and signs of water dripping
- Safety essentials — smoke alarm, fire extinguisher, visible hazards
- Cosmetic vs. more serious concerns — so you know what’s negotiable and what needs a closer look
- Full photo and video documentation of every room, so you can see it yourself
How It Works
- Book online — tell us the property address and your preferred inspection date, ideally before you finalize the offer.
- We inspect the property — a thorough, room-by-room assessment on-site.
- You receive a full report — photos, video walkthrough, and a written summary within 24 hours, so you can negotiate or walk away with confidence.

Who This Is For
- First-time buyers who want an unbiased second opinion before signing
- OFWs and overseas buyers purchasing sight-unseen or through a representative
- Investors evaluating multiple units and need fast, reliable comparisons
- Anyone buying a resale unit where the true condition isn’t obvious from listing photos
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need an inspection if the developer says the unit is move-in ready?
“Move-in ready” is a marketing term, not a guarantee. Developers and sellers have an interest in closing the sale — we don’t. Our job is to tell you what’s actually there, including issues that aren’t visible in photos or a quick walkthrough.
Can you inspect a property if I'm buying from abroad?
Yes — this is one of our most common requests. You don’t need to be present. We handle the visit and send you complete documentation so you can make the decision remotely.
What happens if you find a problem?
We document it clearly with photos and note whether it’s cosmetic, moderate, or a serious concern — giving you leverage to negotiate the price, request repairs, or walk away before you’ve signed anything binding.
How soon before closing should I book this?
Ideally before you sign any reservation agreement or make a down payment, so you have room to negotiate or reconsider based on what we find.
How much does it cost?
Pricing depends on your property’s size and location. View our full pricing page or contact us with your property details for a custom quote.
Is this a structural or engineering inspection?
No — we’re not an engineering firm. This is a thorough visual and functional inspection, not a structural certification. If we spot something that looks like it needs a specialist opinion (structural, electrical, etc.), we’ll flag it clearly so you can bring in the right professional before you close.
