We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
