Terry was the inspector we booked for our inspection, he arrived on time and completed his report within 2 hours. We received the report a few hours later and found it to be highly detailed with a few mentions of things we should be aware of. Very happy with the service.

A friend recommended I used Vetted and this turned out to be great advice. I had follow up questions regarding some details from the report and Frank the inspector was really patient in helping to explain the terminology and what to look out for.

I recently used Vetted for my building and pest inspection, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The platform was incredibly easy to use and I was able to book my inspection in just a few clicks. Not only was the price very reasonable, but the communication from the team was excellent. I was kept informed throughout the entire process and the turnaround time was impressively quick. The interface of the platform was also very user-friendly and made the whole process seamless. But what really stood out to me was the helpful and friendly customer support. They were always available to answer any questions I had and went above and beyond to ensure I had a positive experience. I highly recommend Vetted to anyone in need of a building and pest inspection. They truly exceeded my expectations and I will definitely be using their services again in the future. Thank you Vetted for providing such a fantastic and reliable platform for booking inspections. Keep up the great work!

We moved from Sydney down to Melbourne and had to buy a house, didn’t know a single soul here. Used your service a handful of times during the house hunt and ended up with a beautiful forever home which we knew was a quality build.

Nathan deserves 5 stars, please thank him for me. We had a lot of questions and he was very patient.

As a vendor who's sold more than 5 properties, I have found that bidding increases when you provide a building & pest report to prospective buyers because it removes an expensive point of friction in the process for them. I’ve used Vetted multiple times now and have never had an issue!

Frequently asked questions

Coordinate with your seller on the best time and date to complete the inspection. Clear the property of any clutter and obstructions.

It helps if the seller can inform the inspector of any issues that they might know about and provide documentation if available. Secure any pets and turn on all utilities for proper inspection.

While we’re not an actual building and pest inspection company, we’re an intermediary that helps you find vetted providers without bias and headache. We’re here to connect you with the best and most available provider.

Discuss the findings with the inspector for clarification on any points you don’t understand. Ask for more details on the severity of the issues and potential remedies.

Get quotes from qualified tradespeople or contractors for repairing the identified issues. This will help you understand the financial implications. Determine how the issues affect the property’s value, safety, and your decision to proceed with the purchase or sale.

You can use the inspection report to negotiate with the seller. Ask for repairs to be made before you finalise the sale, or request a reduction in the purchase price to cover the cost of repairs.

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.

Look for reviews from past clients. You also want to check if they’re licensed and if they have at least a few years of experience.

The GST component is included in your quoted price and explicitly identified during your booking flow.

While there are no specific laws that require building and pest inspections before buying a home, it’s better to get one. Without it, you could end up buying a home with structural or pest-related problems that will cost you more money in the future.

Discovered issues could also cause health and safety problems. You can them early on and even use the report to negotiate a lower buying price if issues do surface.

Fully completed reports are non-refundable.
