PREMIUM
OPEN HOUSE INSPECTION SERVICE
Your eyes on the ground — expert insight when you can’t be there.
Buying a property from afar can feel stressful, rushed, or uncertain. Our Premium Open Home Inspection Service gives you confidence, clarity, and a local professional on your side — even when you can’t attend in person.
As a licensed real estate professional, I personally attend the open home on your behalf, providing a clear, honest, and practical overview of what the property feels like in real life. You receive a full video walkthrough, general observations, and helpful feedback focused on layout, liveability, flow, condition, and standout features — the things that truly matter when assessing whether a home is right for you.
This service is observational only and compliments (rather than replaces) building, pest, or specialist inspections. It’s the perfect first step for out-of-area buyers, busy professionals, and anyone wanting a grounded, real-world sense of the property before taking the next step.
With local insight, on-the-ground presence, and a genuine commitment to your experience, Joya Nona | Buyers Agency helps you make more confident decisions — without the pressure, guesswork, or stress.
This service is included in Owner Occupier service, First Home Buyers Service, and Investor Acquisition service

Full video walk through of all accessible areas during inspection
“We don't miss the areas that need highlighting. Unlike the selling agent, we have your best interest at heart.”
We provide a comprehensive video walkthrough of all accessible areas during the inspection, capturing the property in real time to give you a clear, honest view of its layout, condition, and key features. This allows you to assess the home as if you were there in person, with visual context that supports confident decision-making—especially when buying from a distance.
Property Inspection Checklist
“Clarity before you commit.”
We complete a detailed, observational property inspection checklist covering condition, layout, functionality, and visible risks. This process is designed to flag potential issues and highlight where professional building or pest inspections may be required.
Photo's of all areas including the surrounding neighborhood.
“No filters or weird angles, just raw photos that are genuine and as close to accurate as possible.”
We take detailed, unfiltered photos during open house inspections to provide a genuine, real-world representation of the property. These images highlight both key features and potential concerns, giving you honest visual insight beyond polished listing photos and helping you make informed decisions with confidence.
Price Estimate & Recent Sales History
“Context that keeps pricing honest.”
We provide a clear price estimate supported by recent comparable sales and local market data, giving you realistic context around value, pricing trends, and buyer demand. This insight helps you assess whether a property is fairly priced and supports confident negotiation decisions.
Environmental overlays like flood or bushfire risk
“Know the risks before they matter.”
We review environmental overlays such as flood, bushfire, and hazard mapping to identify potential risks that may affect insurance, building requirements, and long-term suitability. This insight helps you factor environmental considerations into your buying decision before you commit.
Biodiversity zones and Underground infrastructure (Before You Dig) (if available)
“Insight into what you can—and can’t—change.”
Where available, we check biodiversity overlays and underground infrastructure records to identify environmental constraints or services that may affect future use, development, or maintenance. This provides added context when assessing a property’s long-term potential and limitations.
Suburb Median Prices
“Benchmark before you buy.”
We provide current suburb median prices and recent pricing trends to give clear context around affordability, market movement, and relative value. This helps you benchmark a property against the wider suburb and make informed buying decisions.
Rental yields and vacancy rates
“Cashflow clarity before you buy.”
We assess local rental yields and vacancy rates to provide insight into expected returns, tenant demand, and rental market stability. This helps investors evaluate cashflow potential and understand the strength of rental demand in the area.
10-year capital growth
“Past performance, clearer perspective.”
We provide a 10-year capital growth report and visual chart to illustrate long-term price performance, growth trends, and market cycles. This helps you assess historical momentum and understand how the suburb has performed over time.
Discounting trends and days on market
“Timing and leverage, revealed.”
We analyse local discounting trends and average days on market to reveal how properties are performing, how much buyers are negotiating, and the level of competition. This insight helps inform pricing strategy and negotiation timing.
Infrastructure spending and new developments
“Follow the infrastructure.”
We review current and planned infrastructure spending and major developments to identify projects that may influence future growth, liveability, and demand. This helps you understand how upcoming changes could impact long-term value and lifestyle.
Demographics and social profiles to match lifestyle preferences
“Where you live should fit how you live.”
We analyse local demographics and social profiles to help match a suburb’s character with your lifestyle preferences. This insight highlights factors such as household makeup, age groups, and community trends to support informed location choices.
Proximity to transport, shops, and schools
“Location that works in real life.”
We assess the property’s proximity to public transport, local shops, schools, and essential amenities to provide practical insight into everyday convenience, lifestyle suitability, and long-term desirability. This helps you understand how location may impact livability, resale appeal, and rental demand.

No. This service is observational only.
We do not provide structural, pest, electrical, plumbing, or compliance reports. If issues are identified or suspected, we’ll recommend engaging licensed professionals for formal inspections.
