At Premium Pre‑Purchase Inspections (PPI), we believe that every property purchase should start with confidence—not uncertainty. Based in Melbourne, our mission is to give you the clarity you need before you commit to one of life’s most significant investments.

Who We Are

We are a team led by Mick Sanders, a licensed build with over 35 years of experience in the industry. Licensed, fully insured, and deeply experienced in both building and pest inspection, we bring unmatched attention to detail and professionalism to every job.

How We Work

When you book with us, our process is efficient and transparent:

Easy Booking: Arrange your inspection online or by phone, and we’ll send you a Pre‑Engagement Agreement as per standards.

Thorough Inspection: We inspect every part of your property—roof, sub-floor, plumbing, structure, exterior, decking, and more—inside and out, often going beyond the surface with infrared cameras and moisture meters.

Timely Reporting: On the same day of your building inspection, you’ll receive a detailed written report complete with photos, clear explanations, and recommendations.

Post‑Inspection Support: After reviewing your report, we’ll follow up with you to discuss findings, answer any questions, and advise on further investigations or repairs if needed.

We follow Australian Standard AS 4349.1 for building inspections, ensuring reliability and industry compliance.
