VENDOR PRE-SALE BUILDING & PEST REPORTS
A Vendor Pre-Sale Building & Pest Inspection is a combined building and timber pest inspection done for the owner before the property goes to market. It is for vendors, and agents acting for vendors, who are preparing to sell.
We inspect all elements of the property and take many photos per inspection. These are compiled into an easily readable and comprehensive Building & Pest Inspection Report that is emailed to you within 24 hours of the inspection.
WHY A VENDOR REPORT MATTERS
Most buyers will have the property inspected before they commit. A vendor report means you see what they’ll see, before they see it.
No surprises during negotiation. Defects found late in a sale are often used to push the price down or delay settlement. Knowing about them early puts you in control.
Time to fix or price it in. You can repair minor issues before listing, get quotes for bigger ones, or set your price knowing the property’s true condition.
Confidence for buyers. A recent, independent report you can share helps serious buyers move forward, especially at auction, where they have less time to do their own checks.
Fewer falling-over sales. Contracts that hinge on a building and pest inspection are less likely to collapse when the major issues are already known.

InspectVic is one of the only inspection companies in Melbourne, if not the only one, to build a 360° walkthrough into its inspection reports, for transparency and buyer confidence.
Vendor report plus a 360° walkthrough of the home with the report’s significant findings marked, to share with prospective buyers.
Why a 360° walkthrough helps
Transparency. Buyers see the whole home and exactly where the significant findings are, not just a list in a report.
Less confusion. A finding is easier to understand when you can see it in the room it’s in.
Fewer questions. Buyers and their agents can answer most of their own questions before they call.
Less hesitation. Buyers who can see the property’s condition for themselves are more comfortable making an offer.
Your choice to share. Once the report is done, you decide whether the walkthrough goes to buyers. Either way, it’s yours to keep.
A clear record. If another inspector’s findings differ from ours, you have the property’s condition documented room by room.
Easier repairs. Show tradespeople exactly where each item is before they quote or arrive. Ideal if you’re an investor living interstate or overseas.
