In short: The cooling off period on a private sale is short. Book the inspector before you sign if you can, or immediately after.

The window

Victorian cooling off on most private residential sales is three business days. That is not long to book, attend and read a report.

Before you sign

Many buyers book the inspection before signing, or make the contract subject to a satisfactory inspection.

At auction

There is no cooling off at auction, so inspect beforehand.

Turnaround

Our report arrives within 24 hours of the visit.
