Traditionally (2o years ago) the cost of a combined inspection and report was around $600. Due to a number of factors such as changing market conditions, and increased competition in the sector, prices have reduced.  Another major contributing factor to the cost of a pest and building report relates the growing trend of the Vendor or Selling Agent providing building and pest reports with the Contract of Sale. Also known as ‘Pre-sale Reports’, these reports can have several benefits for all parties involved. However care should be taken due to the inherant nature of human bias…

$500 is a relatively small investment compared the cost of rectifying major building defects or repairing concealed structural termite damage.
