How Much Does a Property Condition Report Cost in Perth?
The cost of a property condition report depends on the property and the type of inspection. Here's what affects the price, and how to get an accurate quote for your property.
What affects the cost of a PCR
Most of the cost of a PCR is inspector time: on site, and then preparing the report. Anything that adds rooms, items or travel adds to that time.
Property size
Larger homes have more rooms, surfaces and fixtures to inspect, photograph and write up.
Bedrooms and bathrooms
Bedrooms, bathrooms and wet areas each add their own set of items to record.
Property type
An apartment, a townhouse and a house on a large block take different amounts of time, especially once outdoor areas are included.
Furnished or unfurnished
Furniture and household items listed in the report add to the inspection and write-up time.
Location and access
Where the property is and how our inspector will get access can affect scheduling.
Additional reporting requirements
Extra items such as pools, sheds or specific photo requirements can extend the inspection.
Ingoing, outgoing and routine inspections compared
The type of inspection matters as much as the property. Each type serves a different purpose and involves a different level of detail.
Ingoing PCR
The most detailed report. It sets the baseline for the tenancy, so every room and item is recorded in full.
About ingoing pcrs →Outgoing PCR
Compared item by item against the ingoing report, recording what has changed at the end of the tenancy.
About outgoing pcrs →Routine inspection
A check on general condition and visible maintenance during the tenancy. Usually less detailed than a PCR.
About routine inspections →Why report quality matters more than price
A property condition report only proves its value when something goes wrong, often at the end of the tenancy when the bond is being discussed. A cheaper report with vague notes and too few photos can leave you without the detail you need at that point.
When comparing quotes, it's worth asking how detailed the report will be, how many photos are included, and how quickly it's delivered. Ours are room by room, photo-backed and delivered the next business day.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a property condition report cost in Perth?
It depends on the property and the type of inspection. Size, number of rooms, property type, furnishings and any extra reporting requirements all affect the price. Send us the details for an accurate quote.
Why don't you publish a fixed price?
Properties vary a lot. A one-bedroom apartment and a furnished four-bedroom house with a pool take very different amounts of time to inspect and report on properly, so we quote for the property in question.
Do agencies get different pricing?
Agencies with ongoing inspection needs can request an agency quote. Get in touch to talk through your volume and the inspection types you need.
Is an outgoing report cheaper than an ingoing report?
It depends on the property and the condition it's been left in. Ask for a quote for both if you'd like to plan ahead for the full tenancy.
