It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
