The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
