Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
