It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
