Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
