We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
