It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home 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 that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
