This will make sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
