Pre-Sale Building and Pest Inspection Specialists
Selling your house? A vendor building and pest report has many benefits. At Local Inspections, our unique pricing schedule means that the vendor can share the cost of the report with the buyer.
- Identify major defects and safety issues before listing the property.
- Speed up the sales process
- Take out the element of surprise
- Have an opportunity to fix or repair defects before the sale
A pre-sale building and pest inspection also assists with pricing the property given the condition and maintenance that is identified.
The report can be shown to potential buyers. Once they proceed with the purchase, they can opt to have the report then reissued in their name. This is important so that they then have full rights to the report after they purchase the house.

Site Visit
One of our highly trained building and timber pest inspectors will visit your property to inspect. They will discuss defects that are identified and provide advice about who you should contact for repairs. If you choose to repair any items, a reinspection can be organised and the report updated to remove the items.
Report sent within 24 hours of inspection
Reports are often available the same day, but within 24 hours of the pre-sale building and pest inspection. The report will be in your name but you are welcome to share it with potential buyers should you wish to.
Report is changed into the buyers name
The buyer can read but not rely the report if they are not named on the report. The buyer pays a fee to have the report changed into their name. If there is no buyer for the property after 8 weeks, the vendor pays the balance of the fee.
Why should a seller get a pre-sale building and pest report?
Armed with a pre-sale building and pest report, a vendor can identify defects with the property. Without this information, issues might not be apparent until a buyer engages a building inspector. At this stage, contracts might fall over if defects are identified that were a surprise.
At Local Building and Pest Inspections, we can update the report if the vendor chooses to repair items that were identified in the original inspection. A vendor report can be shared with potential buyers and changed into the buyer's name once they purchase the property.
Give your potentials buyers the confidence to proceed with the purchase, with transparency about the condition of the property with a non-bias, third party report.
A pre-purchase building and pest report will also assist with setting an appropriate price for the property given the condition.
The building and pest inspector will inspect the following areas:
