急救教,不会放图…

买自住condo.  The above is the photos from inspection.  Inspector said:  there was water intrusion, but not sure when and where it was from.  It looks dry now.  But the owner said he did not know anything about it.  What can I do?  The contingency has to be removed by late today.

图片要竖起来看。it is in a

It is in a water heater cabinet in the balcony.  The water stains location on the ceiling, side wall the on the floor.  Seller said he knows nothing.  He did changed a new water heater about 5 years ago.  I am worried about slow leaking from the connections above the ceiling ( or within the ceiling).  As the seller never checked, so he did not know.  I really want to buy the condo.  But afraid there will be lots of trouble.  Seller doesn't want to do anything.  What can I do?  The best will be to open the wall to check.  Visually no water seen.  Inspector said he can not determine if this is new or old.  I have ordered a mold inspection, that is to be done today.  What else I can do.  The seller doesn't want to cut the wall.  
请各位帮帮忙出出主意,我该怎么跟卖家教室,我还需要做一些什么,我应不应该remove contingency.   The deadline is today.

想买应该不是什么大事,我楼下condo 卖了,卖的时候就发现漏水,找我,

我请公司来做了,他们打开墙壁的,换了什么,收了我700 多

楼下搬进新家,又叫漏水了,我让公司再去,他们说发现还有一处要修,修了

现在过去一段时间了,没有动静,我猜是修好了,第二个账单 667,我还没付,等等再付

喜欢就买!但是要用这漏水的水迹砍价!卖主说不知道是在撒谎,不管他了,砍价!如果真的接口漏水,墙摸上去应该是潮湿的?

我觉得如果卖家知道还好,他不知道的话这漏水就不知道有多长时间了

对老地主可能不算什么,但看来你是新手,又买来自住,还是买好点状况的吧。外墙要拆不是要经HoA 吗,麻烦

卖主不太可能不知道,只是不想说,可能情况比你看到的更差

Yes, I agree this is not a big deal.

大惊小怪吧?这是utility closet,而且和室内没有空气交流。

告诉卖家给几千元了事。你不去修估计都无所谓。搬进去后monitor一下。

哦。那么下面几个地主说的都在理。不是啥大毛病。开墙就可以修。对新手应该是比较头疼的。拿着砍价吧。

可是如果是漏水也是要修的对吧,尽管在阳台上
m
meowi
就是怕这种情况。如果漏了很长时间,说不定的都流到下面一层。
m
meowi
是啊,感觉很麻烦,就算的修都不知道怎么修。

随便找一个公司估价,然后按照他们的估价砍价。

报告说有mold!!你们说怎么办呢?

报告说天花板,墙和地上都有mold,这面墙连着里面fire place。不是外面的墙,我今早上搞错了,以为是外面的墙。他说要开墙才知道到底坏到什么程度。上面及下面的unit 是否involved.  这个是为我女儿买的,她工作非常忙,好不容易找到这condo.  你们说怎么办才好?他说修理是6千以上。这个condo 能买吗?或者是contingent upon the mold issue get fixed?  或者拿6千?或者要1万?不知道HOA 是否cover?

只要现在没漏水,打开墙发现mold 的痕迹,用bleach 喷过擦掉就可。
