This ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
