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

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
