Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
