About Us

Knowledge, Communication and Integrity.

These are the 3 key pillars that we pride ourselves on. Homewise Building Inspections was born from the idea that the inspection industry needed more consultants who were willing to take the time to understand your requirements, well before the inspection takes place. That way, we are able to tailor the inspection to your specific needs, time restraints and financial situation. At Homewise, we truly understand that 1 size, does not fit all.

Homewise Building Inspection’s owner, Scott Nerlich, emphasises that the relationship between inspector and client can not be understated. He strongly believes that this is the key to providing a flawless service for his clients. Scott also has 2 licensed and currently operational building supervisor’s that work along side him, to make sure that every Homewise client can be serviced at a moments notice.

 

Why choose Homewise?

Unlike most inspection companies, Homewise is comprised of active tradesman and building work supervisors. This means we practice what we preach and are proud to hold current building work licenses. We are fully insured and maintain our memberships with the Housing Industry Association and the Association of Building Consultants.
