It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
