The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
