Property Check

What Property Check does

Property Check is a UAE-based property inspection services company founded in 2022 by Michael Widgery and Liam Ketley. The company delivers detailed property condition assessments to residential buyers, owners, and renters across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Ras Al-Khaimah, and Sharjah, as well as to enterprise customers including real estate agents, brokers, and property developers. Pricing for inspections ranges from 999 AED for studios and one-bedroom properties to 2,999 AED for larger properties, with reports typically delivered within 24 hours.

The company's core technology is a proprietary Inspection App developed over two years with government-approved tech developers and positioned as world-first software purpose-built for Middle Eastern homes. The app collects over 4,000 data points daily on UAE properties and powers the company's Property Report Cards, which combine hundreds of images with thermal imaging data to document defects across electrical, plumbing, A/C, pest, water quality, and cosmetic dimensions. Through its partnership with Lumenore, a data intelligence platform, Property Check analyzes aggregated inspection data to produce predictive maintenance insights and quantify monetary value protected per inspection.

Property Check operates a hybrid go-to-market combining a self-serve online booking system for individual consumers, agent and broker referral partnerships with exclusive rates and discount codes, and direct enterprise sales to developers for comprehensive handover inspection programs. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time inspection fees, with average claimed outcomes of 287 issues identified and 49,920 AED in first-year repair savings per customer. The company holds no disclosed external funding, operates with a team of 11-50 employees, and claims #1 rated status in the UAE property inspection category based on customer rankings and earned media coverage in Khaleej Times, Gulf News, The National, and Dubai Eye.
