Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
