Re: Condo Inspection
Condos are unique in that there is no structure or roof involved, those are common areas, so disclaim them, along with all other common areas.
That said, a failure to report something with that railing, which IS "common property" could definitely lead to trouble if something was not right with it and someone fell over or through it.
Are those three story condo units, or single story condo units like stacked like apartments.
I guess you get up to the units from the other side or a common interior corridor.
The a/c units are not common as I can see condenser units on the ground, so each has its own a/c system, which mean you may likely need to get on the roof for the condenser unit. When on the roof, even though you have disclaimed it, give it a quick look over for obvious problems and report any you see, and if you see *any* problems with the roof recommend the roof be inspected *prior to closing* and that your client verify reserves for repairs, such as the roof, parking and road surfaces, pool(s), etc., as many times there is no reserve and the buyer become liable for any and all special assessments made *after closing*, even though they just bought.
Get the seller to be responsible for roof and other obvious repair costs and special assessments.
