The cost of a building and pest inspection in Melbourne will depend on a few factors, like the size of the property, renovation status, locations, and others. On average, the costs can go from $300 to $1,200 (including GST) to start. That includes the inspection and report.

Yes, a report is a legal document. That said, you’re fully protected by law in case you find any pre-existing and major issues that weren’t included in the report.
-
If a report comes back and you aren’t happy with the condition of the home and want to back out, you’re allowed to. But there’s a slight chance you won’t fully get your earnest downpayment back. Try to convince the seller to lower the sale rate or address the issues before you complete the purchase process.

It’s not necessary, but it’s better if you’re there to see the condition of the property first hand and have the inspector walk you through any findings. But if your schedule doesn’t allow it, that’s fine. Inspectors will take detailed photos and include them in their reports.
-
It’s best to provide a fixed date. However, in case of any unforeseen scheduling issues that could impede an inspection, contact us at least 36 hours before the inspection.
