It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
