Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
