This will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
