What’s in a Home Inspection Report – Dubai Buyers Guide

Introduction: The Power of a Professional Home Inspection Report

Buying a home in Dubai is a major investment — and a proper home inspection ensures you know exactly what you’re getting before you move in or make your final payment. But what’s actually included in a home inspection report?

At Property Inspection Dubai, we deliver detailed, image-based reports within 12 hours, using certified tools and a structured format. Our reports are not just paperwork — they’re powerful documents that help buyers, landlords, and investors identify defects, demand fixes, and avoid costly surprises.


🧾 What Is a Home Inspection Report?

A home inspection report is a room-by-room defect assessment prepared by certified inspectors. It includes physical observations, safety concerns, technical faults, and repair recommendations. The report is designed to be submitted to developers, contractors, landlords, or used for negotiation during a purchase.
