Buying a home in Rockbank VIC
Rockbank sits between the new estates filling in around it and older established housing further west along the corridor. That mix changes what an inspection is for. A newly finished estate home suits stage inspections and a pre-handover; an established property further out suits pre-purchase and pest work, where the findings run to measured cracking and moisture rather than unfinished work.

New estate homes and established properties need different inspection types.
On older stock, cracking is measured and categorised rather than described.
Severe cracking between 4mm and 10mm warrants an engineering opinion.
Trees close to foundations draw moisture unevenly from reactive ground.
Mould inside is usually the visible end of a moisture problem outside.
