It ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
