Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.

Inspections of properties also known as house inspections are mandatory for anyone buying the home. Due to the growing cost of homes and building maintenance costs it is important to know precisely what you're purchasing.
