Wherever You’re Buying, We’ve Scrutinised 100+ Properties in that Area Already.

After more than 20,000* Brisbane building inspections, Action Property Inspections is Brisbane’s leading independent resource for home buyers and investors in Brisbane. That’s an average of over one hundred^ inspections per Brisbane suburb or 1 in every 26 Brisbane properties. No matter where you’re buying, Action knows the area, and knows precisely what the seller could be hiding. In fact, chances are, we’ve probably assessed one of your neighbours’ homes.

Action Property Inspections is 100% Independent

Action Property Inspections is owned and run by Andrew and Leisa Mackintosh. Over the decades, Andrew and Leisa have been invited to partner with agencies and pest companies, to franchise, and to sell to chain inspection companies. They’ve chosen to remain Brisbane’s independent voice for buyers. Andrew and Leisa work for you, and you alone! Since purchasing a property is the biggest financial decision you will likely ever make, Action Property Inspections is your shield against poor investment.

We believe that our hundreds of five-star reviews, our awards and our countless repeat customers are proof we’re doing something right!

Action Property Inspections Doesn’t Use ‘Junior Inspectors’

Your property will be personally inspected by Andrew. You will not be relying on a franchisee, a contractor, or a junior with a TAFE diploma to advise you on one of life’s most important financial decision. You will have a veteran builder who will do a thorough, ‘eyes-on’ inspection and provide you with a comprehensive inspection report. We’re proud to provide reports that ‘stand up in court’ and aid you in renegotiating a purchase price based on findings. We believe that your inspection report is your most important negotiation weapon. So, we make it bulletproof!
