    Frequently Asked Questions

    1What is a home inspection?

    Home inspections are performed to identify and report the features in a house. They can help people buying and selling homes to understand the condition of the house and anything that may increase or decrease its value. It also helps homeowners make full use of the features of their homes and make purchasing decisions from the inspection report.

    2How much time does it take to inspect a house?

    Inspections can often be completed in a matter of hours, and we can usually inspect your property within 24 hours of your instruction.

    3What are the benefits of a home inspection?
    1. You’ll have more clarity in your purchasing decisions based on an accurate view of the property.
    2. You can make negotiations based on defects within the inspection report.
    3. You can ask the seller to make repairs before the purchase is complete.
    4. You’ll be provided with caution areas revealing defects that have the potential to become expensive problems.
    5. Our home inspections can confirm if the property meets Australian Standards.
      After the purchase, you can maintain in-depth knowledge of your home and may act on defects.
    4What do home inspectors look for during an inspection?

    Home inspectors examine the property’s structure, systems, and overall condition. This includes the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. They also check for signs of water damage, pest infestations, and safety hazards like mold or faulty wiring. Inspectors provide a detailed report highlighting any issues that need attention.

    5Do you have to inspect a property before renting?

    Yes, it is highly recommended to inspect a property before renting. This ensures that the property is in good condition and safe for tenants. A pre-rental inspection allows you to document existing damages and helps avoid disputes over the security deposit when the lease ends.

    6Are inspection fees tax deductible on rental property?

    Yes, in Australia, including Melbourne, inspection fees for rental properties are tax deductible if they relate to the maintenance or management of the property. These can be claimed as part of your rental expenses when filing your tax return. For specific advice, consult an accountant or refer to guidelines from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

    7Can a landlord inspect rental property?

    Yes, landlords can inspect rental properties in Melbourne to ensure the property is being maintained and identify any repair needs. Inspections must comply with Victorian tenancy laws, which require proper notice and respectful conduct. Inspections should not interfere with tenants’ quiet enjoyment of the property.

    8Can a property manager take photos during an inspection?

    Yes, property managers can take photos during an inspection to document the property’s condition, particularly for maintenance or damage purposes. However, they must respect the tenants’ privacy and avoid photographing personal items. This is in line with Victoria’s privacy and tenancy laws.
