PRE AUCTION BUILDING INSPECTIONS MELBOURNE

All Checked Out is Melbourne’s Pre Auction Building Inspections Specialists. We have been doing pre auction building inspections in Melbourne for over 10 years.

Luke, the principal property inspector is a Registered Builder with the Building Commission of Victoria (Licence no: DB-U 44801). 

Why it's Important to Have a Pre Auction Building Inspection

Pre auction building inspections are the same as pre purchase building inspections. However, with pre auction inspections you need to get your report completed before auction day.

This is due to the fact that most auction conditions are NOT usually conditional upon you obtaining a satisfactory building and pest inspection. Once you have made the winning bid it is too late. This means you may end up with a property that will have a lot of unexpected repair costs. This is especially true as the seller is under no obligation to let you know about any structural defects the property may have.

You are assured, when you engage All Checked Out,  that you will receive a strictly independent building inspection report.  This means you are fully informed about the condition of the property before you decide to bid at auction.

With reports starting from a low $450 (inc GST), it is well worth it for your peace of mind.

 

Remember: 50% Off Your Next Pre auction Building Inspection If You Miss Out At Auction

What is a Pre Auction Building Inspection?

A pre purchase auction inspection provides a detailed, easy to read report, that tells you about the major faults a home has. This includes any cracking walls, rising damp, leaking roofs and safety hazards. The report will also highlight any unauthorised work, as well as whether the faults can be fixed.

It is recommended by Consumers Affairs Victoria that you consider engaging a qualified building inspector to make sure all faults are found. This includes one where attempts have been made to cover them up!

What is a Pre Auction Pest Inspection Melbourne?

It is not commonly known that you only need 2mm for common timber pests (such as termites) to gain access to a property. This is all it takes for pests to cause extensive damage. As well, most people don’t know that their home insurance is limited in such circumstances.

 

This is because it is unlikely they will cover the cost of repairing your home if pests were present before purchase. As a result, it is essential that a pre purchase pest inspection is undertaken before you buy.

 

That is why we specialise in providing pre purchase pest inspections for all suburbs of Melbourne. When All Checked Out provide pre purchase pest inspections our reports are on all types of pests. Types of common pests include termites, borers and fungal decay. This way you are fully informed before you make the decision to buy your property in Melbourne.

Pre Auction Building & Pest Inspections in Melbourne

If you want complete peace of mind before you make the decision to buy, we strongly recommend both a building and pest inspection. This is especially true as building defects often lead to pest infestations.

By having both inspections done you get the most comprehensive condition report available. As All Checked Out specialise in providing combined building and pest inspections in Melbourne you are sure that you’ll get a report that highlights all the issues the property you are thinking of buying.

In addition, as we do both the building inspection at the same time as the pest inspection we provide a discount compared to when the inspections are done separately. As a result you even save money!
