Hi,
I have found a nice house for my family to move to.
However, there is a vertical crack my wife is very concerned about. The real estate agent has said this: the crack was there 20 years ago when the vendor moved in, and has had no problems ever. The real estate agent asked the vendor to do some work on the outside before selling, as you can see in the photos. Also, there is a crack on the inside of the same wall, possibly slightly to the right of the outside wall crack.
The property was previously bid, but the buyer pulled out. The real estate agent said they asked the surveyor how the house was, who said the house was fine.
Any advice or help on this. As there is a crack on inside and out, I am slightly concerned and my wife does not want to offer on the house because of this.
