It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
