This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences.
