A Pre-Auction Inspection is a key step when considering a property in Mulgrave. With Mulgrave’s mix of family homes and townhouse developments, it’s essential to uncover any hidden issues early. At All Checked Out, we specialise in professional inspections across Melbourne’s South East, helping buyers feel confident before auction day.
Luke, our lead inspector, is a Registered Builder accredited by the Building Commission of Victoria (Licence no: DB-U 44801). Each inspection follows Australian Standard AS4349.1-2007, ensuring a detailed, trustworthy report to guide your auction decisions.
Pre-Auction Inspections must be done before the auction day, unlike pre-purchase building inspections.
This is because most auctions are not dependent on you securing a satisfactory building and pest inspection. Once you buy a property at auction, it’s yours, regardless of its condition. Furthermore, many buyers are unaware that sellers are not obliged to disclose any structural defects the property may have.
By engaging All Checked Out for a pre-auction building inspection, you can be confident of receiving an impartial and independent building inspection report. This makes sure you are fully informed about the property’s condition before negotiating the price or placing a bid.
With reports starting from a low $450 (inc GST), it is well worth it for your peace of mind.

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!

It is not that well 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. Even worse, most people don’t know that their home insurance is limited in such circumstances.
This is because it is unlikely your insurance will cover the cost of repairing your Mulgrave home if pests were present, before being purchased at auction. As a result, it is essential that a pre auction pest inspection is undertaken before you buy.
That is why we specialise in providing pre auction pest inspections for the Mulgrave suburb of Melbourne. When All Checked Out provide pre auction 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 Mulgrave at auction.
You will receive a thorough pest inspection report within 24 hours (or even sooner if necessary). In summary, the report includes photographs and detailed information outlining any pest related issues found in the Mulgrave property you intend to purchase at auction.

If you want complete peace of mind before you make the decision to buy your Mulgrave property at auction, 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 at the same time, you get the most comprehensive condition report available. As All Checked Out specialise in providing combined building and pest inspections in Mulgrave 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 will save money!
