Is a construction project happening around your property? 🏗️

A dilapidation report records your property's condition before work begins. If anything gets damaged later, it's your evidence. But only if it's done properly.

These are the 7 mistakes we see most often in Victoria:
1️⃣ Leaving it too late
2️⃣ Using an unqualified or non-independent assessor
3️⃣ Vague descriptions with no crack measurements
4️⃣ Incomplete coverage
5️⃣ Poor photos and records
6️⃣ Using a residential scope on a commercial site
7️⃣ Assuming the report alone protects you

Melbourne property values are sliding. Is your property at risk? 📉

Melbourne values have fallen 6.2% over the past year, and about 1 in 2 recent buyers would now sell below cost.

You can't control the market. But you can control your loan position, your builder and the quality of the work you pay for.

Here are our pointers for staying resilient with your property:
✅ Know your LVR and what negative equity means for you
✅ Fix defects before your defects liability period ends
✅ Check your builder's registration and insurance before signing
✅ Inspect every construction stage before you pay
