It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
