This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.
