We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
