Save on travel to Austria costs.
1. We do of course meet with our clients when they come to Austria. But if you cannot travel to Austria, because of work or committments. We can visit properties for clients and create a report for them with photos of any defects. Also, checking out the local area or village. This we charge at a day rate + expenses such as fuel and toll charges. We can generally report on up to 3 properties as long as they are within reasonable driving distance of each other. The costs for this are refunded if a client purchases one of the three properties.
Save on price paid for a property
