Response sent on 19th November
We have a response to the sender, please convey this information to the sender at the earliest.
First and foremost, anything that the seller plans to fix or trying to fix, we want it to be done by a licensed and qualified professional and have all the receipts as a proof. We know the seller is handy, but we don't want anyone other than a qualified and licensed professional to fix anything in the home. Please provide receipts of repairs that are being done
None of the priority issues we asked for were addressed, they are all
related to health, air quality, safety related, structural integrity,
general ease of use. we wanted to make sure there are no structural
problems or no air/health related issues or any flaky electrical issues.
Out of so many issues found during home inspection, we picked only a
few which are very important for the living condition in the house, we
would expect your utmost priority to address them.
First and foremost was the mold issue in the basement. Any mold
is not good to be inhaled or get in contact with, there will be long
term consequences because of this. We have kids and this really alarms
about the mold in the basement. We could only see 2 corners, other
walls/corners in the basement are not even visible since it is finished
or you had furniture blocking it. Also if you are venting the exhaust
from bathroom into the attic this can create mold in the attic, which
will pose as another health related nuisance that you don't want to get
exposed to. We will be getting a mold test done and will let you know when the mold inspector is available
Second was the safety problems in the house:
1 the jacuzzi not having GFCI protection, no GFCI protector in the
panel, double lugged neutral wires. abandoned wiring in the basement,
this makes the outlets in the house really dangerous to use and the
jacuzzi tub to be unusable.
2. The patio posts are deteriorated, which can cause loss of life
if someone is there when the posts collapse and also cause a huge damage
to the structure of the house and roof above.
3.The breaker protecting the air conditioner is also not the
correct rating, you don't want your air conditioner to draw extra power
and get fried, instead of a simple fix. Also this can lead to a fire
hazard because of the incorrect rating.
4 Windows are rattling and don't stay up when opened. This is a
serious issue, if the kids or any of us puts our hands and the windows
come sliding down, it can seriously hurt and cause hospitalization.
Others are all issues for general or daily use like the divertor in
shower not working (this leaves the bath tub unusable for kids), flexible drain piping under the sinks. Make the
windows free of draft which will reduce the electricity bills as well as
make it more eco friendly. If the furnace is not being maintained in
regular intervals, it can lead to the condensation and soon it will stop
working. Please get furnace serviced to keep it in a good working
condition.
In interest of time, we will be getting a
handyman to get us an estimate of all the repairs so that we can close
in a timely fashion
