Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
