This ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
