It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
