It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
