Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
