Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
