The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
