Choose your inspection

Pre-purchase building inspections record visible defects and access limits before you buy. Ask for a building and timber pest package if you need both reports.

For a sale, see ACT vendor inspection packages. Your conveyancer should confirm which documents your property requires.

Plan construction-stage inspections before the work is covered. At completion, choose a house handover inspection or an apartment completion inspection. Confirm the actual work that will be ready with your builder.

For several properties in one project, ask about bulk handover inspections.

Commercial pre-purchase inspections can help with an office, shop or warehouse purchase. Shared areas and specialist services need an agreed scope.

Dilapidation reports record condition before nearby construction. For an existing problem, see building defect reports or building dispute and legal reports.

Have the property address, building type and deadline ready. Tell us about earlier reports, known concerns and access arrangements. We can then confirm the report purpose, scope and fee.
