It will make sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
