We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
