    If you are considering purchasing a home, it is important to be aware that home inspectors may not always catch every issue, especially in older homes built before building codes existed. Additionally, new homeowners may have second thoughts about their purchase after living in the home for a while. Mike Holmes is trying to educate us all about these potential issues so that we can make informed decisions when buying a home.

    • @mrg09211976

      They said the inspector said it wasn't an issue just a little concrete. Mold is a massive issues and needs immediate attention.

    • @dposcuro
      @dposcuro 24 дня назад +4

      "...significant crack in the main structure..."
      1: The inspector did not call it a significant crack. It was a smaller crack, and the inspector said, to quote Corey, "Just put a bit of cement, and you'll be good."
      2: It is not part of the main structure.
      3: It got bigger, after the winter they lived in the building. After the "inspector" saw it in the first place.
      4: The pillar had not shifted. There were no other signs of structural damage. There were no signs of any kind, that the house was in imminent danger of collapse.
      Simply put, it was a crack in the porch. Yes, it was beside the pillar, but that pillar is only supporting the deck, and over hanging roof, but the pillar itself was still on solid material. Again, the cracked and broken part is beside the pillar.
      The water being let in, is only going to the cold room. A room that is sealed off from the main part of the house, and is not heated, nor is the air inside of it circulated within the rest of the house.
      Mold in the kitchen however, presents a significant possibly health risk, especially to a child who has a developing immune system. It is not idiotic to prioritize their health, over a crack in the porch.

      New homes have issues. All of the issues this house had, _were there from when it was built._
      A lot of the houses features on these shows are new houses with problems because of worthless contractors cutting corners, or just absolutely having no idea how to do something, but saying they do.
      Did you even watch this episode?
      Seriously. The 2x4s in the concrete of the front porch, were there when the home was built.
      The bad caulking on all of the windows and doors, was there when the home was built.
      The shit deck was there when the home was built.
      The sill cast under the door, was done when the home was built.
      The thin concrete floor in the basement, and all the issues under it, was there when the home was built.
      The shower fixtures not being attached to the studs, was a problem since the house was built.
      The drywall and bad shower install period, were there from the moment the house was built.
      Not one, single problem in this house, was caused by age, or bad renovations. All of it, was because of bad building techniques when the house was made.
