This makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
