This ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences.
