Please DO NOT USE Inspector Hawkeye for your building inspection as Luke isn't professional and high

Please DO NOT USE Inspector Hawkeye for your building inspection as Luke isn't professional and highly unethical. He did not inspect the property properly. He came across very friendly but his reports do not have any pictures attached. When we confronted him, he started name calling, racist remarks and very unprofessional.

I've to get another Building Inspector report done with find the property I've purchased have major defects and compared to Luke report was completed different. Not sure if Luke physically in the property when performing the report.

I've informed the Real Estate agent, lawyer and other inspectors about Inspector Hawkeye service and show them the text messages Luke sent. For those have given Luke a five stars and I would suggest you to have another Building Inspection done and compare them.

I would highly NOT recommend anyone to use them. There are many other Building Inspectors out there that are honest and ethical.

Avoid at all costs.

Avoid at all costs.Very unprofessional and incompetent. If you’re not looking to waste your money on a standardised and misleading report, stay away!Would’ve gone lower if I could.Michelle and Luke were very polite and professional up until I raised my concerns as to why things were not picked up during the initial inspection.We got them to inspect a new build 4 days before the settlement day. Luke gave us a standardised report pretty much saying all was great except some scuff marks on the wall and paint stains on the door.Upon moving in we noticed loose floor boards, protruding nails from inside the drawers, missing gap in the alfresco, faulty exhaust fans, loose tap amongst other things.When we reached out to them, we were pointed towards the builder to get it fixed, which we did. But when we chased them to take accountability that those things were indeed missed in the initial inspection, we were met with lack of accountability, screaming attack from Michelle and my number being blocked by Luke.Appalling!!!

Right From the Get-go, Great.

Right from the get-go, this Aussie-owned and run building inspection company, was brilliant. Best competitive prices, they don’t try to increase what you need. Straight talkers, great advice, and Michelle (part-owner), is a dynamo dedicated to best customer service to helping you work out how they can help at the best price for you. We recommend them and their work 100%. And in case you’re wondering, no, this not a vanity review and I have NO connection with this business as a friend/relative/investor - nothing, I promise to God, Shamans, Buddah, Allah or the Universe!

Disappointed

I feel like I wasted a lot of money! I was charged the same amount as a large home for a small two bedroom apartment. The report was so basic, generic answers and nothing specific to the inspected property. The team were nice, prompt and great at responding but overall disappointed with the inspection. Maybe I should have asked more questions to make my expectations aligned with what they do but I was in rush to get it done and this was my first time needing this service so wasn’t sure what to ask. However since that time, and speaking to friends who have had similar reports for hundreds of dollars less and better more detailed reports.It gave me no reassurance, and feel I wasted my money.Please get quotes and sample of report to check you are happy before going ahead.

Great service!

Luke was very accommodating to perform an inspection for us on a public holiday. He also made time for us to talk through any questions we had with the report, and was very honest with his assessment. Would happily engage his services again and recommend to others.Dave

Luke has a very professional approach and has a standardised and easy to read reporting process. Luke was happy to chat post the inspection to clarify some of the items mentioned in his report. We also found being at the property at the same time as the inspection great as we could talk through his observations at the time.I would definitely engage Luke again if we needed an building/pest inspector.

Wonderful experience

Recently I bought my first property and I was very nervous. Inspector Hawkeye was recommended to me and I am so glad that I went ahead and got them to inspect my first home. I had no idea what I was doing and Luke and the team held my hand throughout the whole process, taking my numerous panicked calls, providing me with the advice I needed and telling me what I needed to fix in the property. I love my new house, and am very grateful for this service! Thanks a lot. Shelley
