It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
