Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
