Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.
