About dilapidation reports
A dilapidation report documents the existing condition of a property, with photos, before neighbouring construction or excavation begins, so any new damage can be attributed fairly. It protects both owners if a dispute arises. This is common before major building works next door.
Getting quotes in Merriton
When you enquire about dilapidation reports, describe the job specifically: what is happening, how long it has been going on, and anything you have already tried. That detail helps a provider assess the request and may improve quote accuracy if they respond.
Local knowledge counts
If the timing for dilapidation reports is flexible, include that in the Merriton request and ask whether it changes availability or price. The provider remains responsible for confirming both.
Quick answers
When should I book a building and pest inspection?+
Book it as soon as your offer is accepted so the report is ready within your cooling-off or subject-to-inspection period, which is often only a few business days. Leaving it late can force you to choose between rushing or losing your inspection right.
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.
