It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We search for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
