This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
