So i thought this would be a fun one! This is new construction, roughly a year or so old at this point. I’ve got opinions on all these cracks, and foresaw them coming at the time of the inspection (although they weren’t there at the time).
I’d love to see if just by looking at these photos what your suspected causes are. This was a nearly 2 million dollar home, brand new it had just about everything that could be wrong with it, wrong with it. Honestly surprised the buyers went through. Anyways, here we are:
Minnetonka, I’m sure you’re familiar with it Yeah, when i first inspected it prior to anyone living there, there were receptacles practically falling out of their boxes, cabinet doors that couldn’t open because they hit adjacent door hinges to bathrooms, oh and not a casement window in the place that could open properly.
Lumber had high moisture content at construction and then it dried out over time or they didn’t fill large drywall joints with compound prior to taping. Another couple of possibilities.
