This makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
