It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
