Take Care to Look Out For

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

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

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
