There is new competition in the Australian property market among platforms who provide building inspection reports for potential property buyers, thus helping people share the costs of reports. Michael Ferrier, Founder of Eyeon, a web-based report-sharing service, wants the government to support this sharing system to help give consumers more confidence in the system. The report will be made available on www.myhome.vic.gov.au and can also be downloaded from the website at http://bit.ly/1kq7mHG. Ferrier believes that once the credibility of report-sharing is accepted, report-sharing has the potential to rise like Uber and Airbnb to become the norm.
