This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
