Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these 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 have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.

Inspections of houses or properties provide an unbiased review instead of what the real estate agent believes is the right answer.
