by Osman ParvezYou've got to admire the ingenuity of some sellers.
On a recent property inspection, we came across something unusual in the basement. Take a look.
Now, why would you build a proper support and footing for the floor, when you could simply jam whatever you've got lying around in there? Why not, indeed.
Nothing says well maintained like discovering an old bed post holding up the floor - a floor, which I might add, was drooping in the corner. I got the feeling the owner decided this was good enough. My buyer didn't agree.
The house also exhibited a few other problems, one which was quite rare in Colorado. If you're curious, this is what termite damage looks like.
I have no idea what the electrical wires are all about. Maybe instead of calling an exterminator (the right thing to do), the owner was trying to electrocute the bugs.
This is why I strongly recommend my buyers obtain a property inspection. It costs a few hundred bucks but it's absolutely worth it.
