Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
