๐ก Did You Know?
Before signing an Offer to Purchase (OTP), it is important to understand the difference between patent and latent defects.
โ๏ธ Patent defects are visible and can be identified during a reasonable inspection of the property.
โ๏ธ Latent defects are hidden defects that may only become apparent after transfer, such as roof leaks, damp, faulty plumbing, or structural issues.
A Property Condition Report helps buyers make informed decisions and can reduce the risk of costly disputes after the sale.
Taking the time to identify and understand defects before signing an OTP can save you significant time, stress, and expense later.
