It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

We look for structural problems, any signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
