The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
