Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
