We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences.
