This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
