This assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
