Hi all
Great forum here. I hope some of you gurus can help me on my first property purchase.
I looked at a place yesterday that had about 3-4 noticeable cracks along the interior walls (roughly 20-30cm long). The significant ones were near the corners of doors and windows so that's expected.
Anyway, is it commonplace to have concrete interior walls have noticeable cracks in them? The place is only about 15 years old. Also, is it my responsibility to fix those cracks if they get much worse or is it body corp's responsibility? I like the place very much but I don't want to go ahead if these ugly cracks are going to be a problem for me in the future. It looks like I'll be in with a lot of competition on this place as well as there were well into 100 people looking at this place yesterday.
Any thoughts?
Cheers
