ACT Sellers Package
In the ACT you must by law arrange for several inspections before you list or advertise your property for sale and attach these to your contract of sale.
If you want consistency and the convenience of dealing only with one company, organise Surety to provide your complete package of professional inspections and reports:
- Building—significant problems?
- timber pest—termites or other timber-destroying pests?
- Compliance—renovations, extensions and structures approved?
- Energy rating—what is the energy efficiency?
All of our inspections are carried out in accordance with current Australian Standards and the reports we produce after each inspection are comprehensive and easy to read.
We believe in providing a report that both the seller and buyer can rely upon. The report will be a honest assessment of the home and not a compromised report. Surety takes pride in the quality of reporting and service we deliver to our clients. We encourage both the seller and buyer of the property to call and chat to us to discuss any items of concern.
While we understand the importance of providing a quality report we also take pride in ensuring that we leave the property as we left it. Our inspectors will wear over shoe booties, use gloves to move manholes and even use a gutter guard to protect any scratches from our ladders on your gutters.
We won't just spend 15-30 minutes at the property, we could be at the property for 1.5 to 2.5hrs depending on the size and condition of the home. No home can be inspected properly in any less time.
The next business day after the inspection your reports will be ready. These reports are then available from our website for download by the seller, real estate agent and solicitor—we make it easy.
Your buyers can rely on our reports and we provide our Surety Guarantee with all our ACT Sellers packages.
Our standard turnaround time for our Sellers Package is 7-9 working days which includes inspection and reports. We are guided by the turnaround time and delivery of the Building Conveyancing Package which must be supplied by the ACT Government - Environment & Sustainability Developement (ESD). We do the inspection on the booked day and your reports will be ready the very next day.
If you are in more of a hurry we do have our Sellers Fastrack Package. Depending on our availability and paying an additional surcharge to ESD we can generally do the inspection and have reports completed within 2-4 working days.

Pre-listing condition inspection
If you really want to be on the front foot, let Surety conduct a pre-listing condition inspection and report. It’s the best way to know what you’re up against before your final inspection, so you can take the opportunity to get things in tip-top shape and maximise your selling price.
Professionalism you can count on
Surety is a member of the Master Builders Association (MBA) and the Housing Industry Association (HIA). We’re fully insured (including professional indemnity insurance)
.
Our inspectors are trained and experienced in all aspects of the industry and will give you the best possible advice. We’re accredited to inspect properties and we do so in accordance with the Australian Standards for Building and timber pest inspection, which means you are entitled to a copy of our Pre-inspection agreement.
