This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
