-
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.

We recommend that you book a building and pest inspection at least a week before you need it for your finance approval. The inspection itself will only take 60 to 90 minutes, but your inspector will need some time to get the report fully and properly done.
-
Generally, we can provide a full and comprehensive report within 48-72 hours depending on the size, case, and condition of your desired property. Larger homes and those with several issues might take longer.
-
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.
