Love the property. Know the condition.
Pre-purchase property inspection in Dubai and across the UAE. A viewing shows you the potential. A pre-purchase inspection helps you understand what you are taking on.
Independent eyes. Clearer decisions.
Pre-purchase property inspection,
with a clearer picture.
Before committing to a resale apartment or villa, get an independent assessment of the accessible property. We look beyond presentation to the condition of finishes, doors, windows, plumbing, electrical fittings and air conditioning.
The report helps you ask informed questions, discuss identified issues with the seller and plan repairs. Where specialist investigation is needed, we explain the limitation and the recommended next step.
What gets our attention.
Checks depend on the agreed scope, safe access and available utilities. Your report records any limitations.
Finishes & workmanship
Wall and ceiling finishes, cracked or hollow tiles, floor levels, paintwork, sealants and visible construction defects.
Air conditioning & ventilation
Accessible AC equipment, airflow, outlet temperatures, controls, ventilation and signs of condensation or drainage problems.
Electrical systems
Accessible sockets, switch operation, distribution-board observations and visible signs of unsafe or incomplete installation.
Plumbing & wet areas
Water flow, drainage, accessible leaks, sanitary fittings, kitchen connections and moisture readings where needed.
Doors, windows & joinery
Operation, alignment, seals, glass condition, handles, locks, cabinetry and fitted storage.
External & accessible areas
Balconies, accessible exterior finishes and property-specific features. Villa scopes can include gardens, terraces and boundary areas.

What will my inspection report include?
Your digital report records the inspected areas, photographs of identified defects, their locations and recommendations for the next step. It gives you a practical list to discuss with your developer, seller or contractor.
How do I get a quote?
Share the property type, size, location and the reason for the inspection. Halo will confirm the appropriate scope, availability and fee before you book. Re-inspections and specialist testing can be quoted separately.
Do the utilities need to be connected?
Working electricity and water allow a more complete assessment of AC, sockets, plumbing and drainage. Tell the team in advance if services are disconnected or access is restricted, so limitations can be agreed.
