What does a building condition survey report include?

The report also provides a summary of maintenance recommendations, an evaluation of safety standards, and any environmental or compliance concerns. This comprehensive report allows property owners to prioritise repairs and manage maintenance proactively.
What is the difference between a building condition survey and a home inspection?
A building condition survey is more detailed than a typical home inspection, which primarily focuses on surface-level issues.
