This will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
