Client Testimonials

"Wow! I was provided with a detailed  and well-structured report, which gave me a clear overview of the condition of the asset and the work and investments it would need on the short and long term. This information allowed me to make a well-informed and substantiated bid to the seller. " 

- First time home buyer Akranes

"Thank you for your detailed inspection report. It is very well made and will be useful for helping us prioritize our maintenance and budgeting the necessary renovations . "

- Housing association in Reykjavik

"We were able to agree on a settlement with a contractor after a long ongoing technical and financial dispute regarding works this contractor conducted. We were provided with an independent review of the conducted works and related claimed cost from the contractor. Confronted with this review the contractor refrained from threats with legal actions to claim  exaggerated costs that did not reflect the conducted works. This allowed us to find a settlement that reflected a fair compensation for the works conducted. "

- Housing association in Reykjavik
