I worked as an inspector with them and saw some pretty suspect stuff getting passed. And by the way...I had zero experience or qualifications as an inspector when I started with them. I was a gardener one with a council one day...an inspector the next. Training was pretty much non existent. I think the director himself only put a couple of hours training into me. The rest of the so called training was with other inspectors on the job. One was an alcoholic who always smelled of booze, who, as the director said, can't teach, and the other one wrote 'war and peace' novels for reports, according to the director. So, I actually learned sweet FA. The general moral of the place was as low s i have seen anywhere. This was probably due to the way the staff were treated. To give you an idea, at the front of the directors desk was a sign...it said "KNEEL HERE". Anyway, I would say use Handovers.com at your peril. I certainly would not recommend them Really? i thought they were so good. professional, price was affordable and did not hesitate to give helpful information. Was a pleasure to deal with them. Would recommend them to my family. I also heard that the director of the company goes out of his way to help people and family ( especially family) with problems, big or small. Oh well, maybe i was wrong. But with social media if you have a gripe with a company or a person you can always get on a site like this and try to destroy the reputation of the said company or person. Maybe that is what has happened with Noregreats Re: BRISBANE Area Independant building inspectors 40Mar 07, 2018 8:36 am KoalaBare KoalaBare noregrets I wouldn't touch Handovers.com with a barge pole.
