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

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
