HQ Explained: Can I trust an independent third-party observer to assess my property, and is it worth it?

When people hear of third-party inspection companies or external snagging, they often ask, “Why would I pay for something that my team already does?” or “Do you do maintenance altogether?”.

When we speak to our customers, we narrow down points on why opting for independent third-party service providers is a favorable choice for them and their properties, as mentioned below.

1. Completely transparent and unbiased assessment

Working and operating independently from other service providers, such as maintenance or fit-out companies - HQ Property Consultants eliminates ambivalence and minimizes ambiguity in the integrity of our service. We give our clients the assurance and peace of mind that we handle their assets carefully and honestly - meticulously inspecting every aspect of the property from civil to MEP works from initial snagging to re-inspection.

2. Detailed and comprehensive report for future reference and property valuation

Like any other assets, properties depreciate over time due to the normal wear and tear during occupancy - however, regular inspection and preventive maintenance can minimize these various depreciating factors. We advise owners to invest in detailed, comprehensive reports from the handover stage, for it will be beneficial to them in the later stages.?

Owners can keep their digital copy, and investors can share it with their property managers for future reference. This way, they can easily monitor and differentiate new and pre-detected issues that have worsened over time and require immediate attention.?

Knowing these data will help owners assess the built condition of their property and how it ages - giving them a better understanding of how to maximize their return on investments.

3. Collaborative approach and reliable customer support and assistance

We are no strangers to the real estate trend wherein clients are merely numbers - the highest bidder or payer gets the best treatment. Other than that, some overlook and neglect the needs and requirements specified by clients to close the deal faster.?

HQ knows how excruciating it is to deal with these situations - that is why we model our business in a client-centric collaborative approach, where we consistently extend knowledge, transparency, and equal assistance to all our clients, giving them the highest quality service - from our Client Relationship Advisors to our Survey Engineers.

To sum up everything, here at HQ Property Consultants, our principle is - Providing high-quality, reliable, transparent, and unbiased property assessment services to help our clients reshape the way they live and invest.
