With this in mind, some experts at The Home Depot have shared the “red flags” homebuyers need to look out for when viewing and buying a property. One of the most “important” aspects buyers
should inspect is the exterior of a property. The experts said: “Curb appeal is important. Inspect the property for hidden concerns drainage issues pests and trees vulnerable to storms can
be bigger issues down the line.” Hairline cracks are not always an indication of a problem but a crack wider than half an inch should be examined by an expert. Cracks that have been patched
up or large cracks could indicate an issue with the foundations. The experts added: “Check the foundations for cracks the roof and gutters for leaks and make sure electrical and plumbing are
up to date. READ MORE: FOUR KITCHEN PAINT COLOURS TO AVOID - ‘OUTDATED AND STRESSFUL FEEL’ However, fresh paint in an unusual area or in a particular patch should be questioned as it could
be trying to cover up something. New paint on just one wall in a room or spot painting could be an indication of a water stain, for example. Again, strong air fresheners aren’t particularly
surprising when viewing homes as the seller will be looking to make the best impression they can of their home. However, strong diffusers or air freshener smells in every room could be a
sign of a seller trying to cover up a pungent smell. Sellers could be covering up the scent of soiled carpets, mould growth, damp or a dodgy plumbing system. If a home is on the market for a
well below market value, there could be a good reason why. Sometimes, homes that are priced very low can have expensive problems that could cost thousands to repair. But this isn’t always
the case as some sellers simply want a quick sale for personal or financial reasons. If in doubt, get the property surveyed to check for any underlying issues that could cost you further
down the line. For those who do discover a problem after buying a property, all is not lost. If the problem is discovered before completion, a buyer can pull out of the sale, demand the
seller reduces the price or pays for the problem to be fixed. If issues are uncovered after completion, a buyer may be able to argue that the seller misrepresented the condition of the
property.
