Hi there, I would be really grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.
We are looking to buy this two year old property and my brother, who works in the building trade has taken a look over some pictures I sent him and mentioned the following:
He noted that one of the posts for the porch is hanging off of the wall and both of the posts on the left are not even touching the ground. He said this seemed to be pretty poor build quality and questioned if the builders who build they porch may have also made other mistakes within the house. He also noted that the two front posts were secured with fencing panel holders.
Secondly, he noted that the fuse board in the garage does not appear to have the correct sign off stickers on it and is not in the correct location:
I would be really keen to know if anyone thinks he is being over-fussy or if these are genuine causes for concern which may mean there are other issues? We were looking to put in an offer on this property but now he has made us wonder.
