Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing.
