Dear Arlene
The charges in the thread looks about right. Not sure about Adelaide but in Perth, as the buyer, you can request for white ant clearance certificate. The buyer will bear the cost for this one - about A$100 to A$150.

Ill check the NSW figures later, apologies if its slightly out, is a guide only, but the complexity of state and territory rates and ammendments makes doing a precise comparison and costing quite daunting
