It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
