Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
