Our take
Bayside Lifestyles is a family owned Wakerley practice offering existing home and new build inspections. Reviews emphasise Anthony's explanations and detailed reports, including assistance for buyers arranging inspections from a distance. For Brisbane bayside building inspectors, the local base is useful. A reviewer specifically noted limited availability, so secure a suitable inspection time before relying on a short turnaround.

Who will you deal with?
Anthony Taffe founded Bayside Lifestyles according to its own about page, and the current contact page publishes his direct email and mobile. The business describes itself as family owned, with experience across construction, renovation and property ownership. Google reviewers consistently name Anthony rather than a changing roster. Ask whether he will personally inspect your property and how any additional pest or roof assessment is arranged.

I was really happy with Anthony’s pre purchase building and pest inspection service. The only bad part is his availability, because he is so popular! He did a thorough inspection and returned the report same day. He found some important safety critical issues at the property, which were important to me as a potential buyer. The report was really well written, detailed and combined with a practical explanation of…
