If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

It makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We look for structural problems and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
