Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Do you really need to have it examined?

We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look 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 caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
