It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
