About new build handover inspection
A handover or practical-completion inspection on a newly built home creates an independent defect list before you accept the build and make the final payment. It gives you leverage to have defects fixed under the builder's obligations. Book it before handover, not after you have moved in.
Getting quotes in Long Flat
Before booking a inspector for new build handover inspection, ask whether the price includes GST, callout and materials, and get it in writing. The quoting spread between operators in the same suburb is bigger than most people expect, which is exactly why comparing pays.
Local knowledge counts
A business may list the Maryborough as a service area without being available for every Long Flat request. Ask about local experience, timing and the full price if the provider responds.
Quick answers
Can I use the report to negotiate?+
Yes. If the report finds significant defects, buyers commonly use it to renegotiate the price, ask the seller to fix issues, or in some cases withdraw within the cooling-off period. An independent report gives you evidence rather than guesswork at the negotiating table.
How much does a building and pest inspection cost?+
A combined pre-purchase building and pest inspection commonly runs $400 to $700 depending on the size and age of the property and your location. It is a small cost against the price of a home and can reveal issues worth many times the fee. Book early so the report fits your cooling-off period.
How long does a building and pest inspection take?+
The on-site inspection of an average home usually takes one to two hours, and most inspectors deliver the written report the same day or within 24 hours. Ask about turnaround before booking if you are working to a tight contract deadline.
