Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
