This ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
