Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
