Raining Glass
Remember how we suggested that when completing a home inspection, every door and window be left open? Here is another example of why you should do that. And if you do that, dangers like this one might be encountered. It wouldn’t be terribly destructive, but it would be annoying.
breakable glass
That would be a severe problem if the seller or landlord claimed that you were responsible for the damage since you would have opened the door. A walkthrough would have made someone aware of the poor home design in either scenario.

When the Pipes Burst
Pipe bursts may happen in any home, but one man had just moved into his new home when it happened to him. Perhaps a checkup before moving in would have showed the pipes were in poor condition?
If a tour had been conducted prior to the new occupant moving in, the issue might have been discovered in either scenario. Never sign anything unless you fully understand what you’re doing!

From Top to Bottom
It’s one thing to fall through a ceiling halfway, but it’s unusual to pass through it entirely and come out the other side. The presence of any structural issues may have been discovered during a professional inspection of the house.
Completely down
At least the new owner turned out to be okay, but we would be incensed if we now had a hole in our ceiling and certainly the floor. Something like that takes a significant outlay of cash in addition to a sizable outlay of labour.

Seems Like Something Isn’t Working
It’s probably a good idea to walk through the house before you move in to make sure the air conditioner is working. If not, you can end up with one that doesn’t. It is not a big deal unless you live somewhere that is extremely hot.
If the heat in your home is so high that candles melt, there is undoubtedly a significant problem. Something doesn’t seem to be working. First off, it almost feels dangerous how hot it is. You would probably want to be aware of a situation like this before relocating to your new house.

Not Up to Code
Given that the majority of homes are functional when a new owner moves in, it is reasonable to think that yours will be as well. But you shouldn’t presume, lest it turn out that your barriers weren’t exactly built in line with code and you find yourself in a sticky situation.
How did you possibly know that the wall might have been easily undermined? Perhaps this would have been noticed by a house inspector. What would they be even if there were any? In either case, a walkthrough might have found this issue.

The Dangers of Bad Building
There is a lot of potential for harm when a home is built illegally. In those conditions, you never know what kind of dreadful disaster might happen to you. The huge amount of snow that fell on this man’s roof caused it to completely collapse.
Thankfully, it appears he wasn’t inside when it occurred, as he would have suffered catastrophic injuries. This wouldn’t have likely been discovered during a tour, but a house inspector might have.

An Accident Waiting to Happen
Walls shouldn’t sag like this unless there are severe natural disasters. There was obviously a building problem that only a house inspector would notice if you returned home one day to find your wall in this condition.
It goes without saying that this man would have enjoyed a home inspection before something like this occurred. After all, repairing such harm would definitely be costly and inconvenient.

Someone Really Missed the Mark
The cost of engaging a home inspector has already been established. Nonetheless, at least they are aware of the things that must be examined prior to your move in. For instance, they might have seen that there were no cables in this outlet!
Who, in all honesty, during the building of this house could have missed something so simple? Upon moving in, this man was surely displeased to discover this peculiarity in his home. Electrical work is after all not cheap!

What You Don’t Know Does Hurt You
If you knew that an apartment’s bathroom was in the kitchen, would you still sign a lease? If given the choice, the majority of people, in our opinion, would elect not to. For this reason, it always pays to see a place before paying for it!
However, perhaps the man in question would have seen this if he had paid greater attention to the apartment’s floor plan before renting it. In a word, it’s very filthy!

The Least of Your Problems
If the restroom floor is in such blatant disrepair as can be seen above, you might easily assume that something isn’t quite right. Despite that, I doubt you would have expected the sink to just fall this way into the wall.
Would a walkthrough have shown that the sink was broken to this person? They might have reconsidered renting this property if they had seen how this bathroom appeared, or they might not have.

How Was This Approved?
Although there have been many odd electrical outlets built over the years, we have never seen one that was housed within a sink. We don’t understand how no one who was building the house discovered it since there is about as risky a location as you can choose for one of these.
Provide an example of a health threat. Since we have no way of knowing what else might be wrong there, we must acknowledge that if we performed a walkthrough of any house and discovered something similar, we would immediately cross that house off our list of potential residences.

Not the Sturdiest Shelves
You want something to be durable if you’re going to use it to hold a lot of other things. It might be considered a crucial element of the design ethos. This does not, however, imply that you always get what you want. It is clear that these shelves were not constructed to support the intended loads.
Of course, looking at a piece of furniture alone normally won’t reveal its age, but you never know. If they had done a walkthrough of the house before moving in, this resident could have realised it was a little frail.

You’ve Been Bamboozled
You can’t really make complaints about things like this after you’ve signed the paperwork if you don’t inspect a property before buying or renting it. Because you weren’t informed of what you were agreeing to, it would be your fault for doing so.
We wouldn’t be surprised if this angered someone, then. Just because someone signed doesn’t necessarily mean they can do much.

The Future of Bathroom Design
Even if this arrangement isn’t the worst we’ve ever seen (we’ve seen plenty of toilets that aren’t even in bathrooms), the fact that there is an open area between two restrooms worries us a lot. Whoever this customer was, they clearly didn’t pay close attention to the floor plan.
Although it is technically vast, you really only have that area because of the unique way that everything is organised. If two people needed to go at once, that would be awkward for sure.

Math Wasn’t Their Strong Suit
While touring a potential house or apartment, it is usually a good idea to check out the appliances. Everything is fine until you realise that one of the appliances cannot even be used because of its poor placement.
It is possible to relocate a microwave without too much difficulty, but why pay for such a service when you can simply rent or buy a house without having to deal with this kind of issue in the first place? To us, that seems like a preferable choice.

Wrong on Every Level
Although it happens frequently to put water sources dangerously close to electrical outlets, this circumstance is special because the hose’s faucet is inside. Why could you possibly require an inside hose?
Technically, there is no real damage to the house because you have the choice to not use the faucet. But if you were to visit a house and discover something comparable, would you truly be compelled to live there?.

The Worst Placement Possible
There aren’t many good things to say about this. In actuality, this is the worst spot we have ever seen for a tub. We’re dubious, though, whether a regulator would report it for breaking any laws.
Despite the fact that it is undoubtedly in a bad location, is it illegal? We’re not sure. But after all was said and done, even a quick inspection by the buyer would have been enough to dissuade them from buying or renting this house.

Wrong, But Not Illegal
Since a home inspector’s goal is to inform you when something in your home isn’t quite up to code, there may not be much he or she can do about something that is broken but not quite illegal. It’s unlikely that this is a violation, for example.
Nonetheless, the inspector might have at least mentioned that you had a toilet in your kitchen closet. Given the placement of the toilet, it’s probable that a walkthrough would have been beneficial in this scenario as well.

One Must Go Before the Other
Undoubtedly, there are quite a few instances on this list where toilets have been placed incorrectly. We don’t understand why setting them up causes so many issues for customers. It is now obvious that this toilet is not in a home based on the handle. Yet, it may have been in a condo.
We don’t know how anyone could have missed the issue with the placement of this lid and the handle, regardless of where it is. Whoever was in charge of inspecting the area where this toilet was located ought to have noticed this and been annoyed.

All the Small Things
While it’s true that you shouldn’t worry about the little things, don’t you think that the fact that they should be so easy to get right makes it even more upsetting when they don’t work out? You might be wondering how challenging it can be to place a doorstop correctly.
At the end of this list, we hope that our main point—always conduct a walkthrough and look for annoying, problematic items like this—will be obvious. If you still choose to purchase or rent, try to convince the seller or landlord to take care of these issues first.

Requiring a Reacharound
Just try turning the water off or adjusting the temperature while still inside the shower. Getting something out of the shower is annoying enough. That seems not just inconvenient, but also terribly unclean.
A walkthrough might have influenced someone’s thinking because it would have at least made them aware of the absurd location of the shower knobs. Again, there’s probably nothing an inspector could have done to alter this.

Can’t Get the Spacing Right
What you’re truly seeing is a fan blade that was mounted improperly and has sunk right into the wall, despite your confusion. If they had seen that during a walkthrough, some people probably would have bought.
It also demonstrates that most apartment walls aren’t actually all that robust and that the top layer is largely there for aesthetic purposes. That should be evident given the harm that even a simple ceiling fan could cause in the correct situations.

The Secret Door
Have you ever wondered what someone’s intentions were while creating a floor plan for a house? How did your home’s door become so challenging to open? Who could have possibly missed this small issue?
Although having an odd appearance, this door isn’t particularly significant. Yet, having small children would be wonderful—imagine the crazy stories you could tell them!

That Definitely Seems Dangerous
There are some genuinely terrible apartments available. But, the majority of them don’t trip you. Due to the poor construction of this one, the ceiling is barely held in place by a little piece of wood.
The worst aspect is that the landlord would almost probably put off fixing it despite how serious it is. Is it ever possible to hire an inspector before relocating to an apartment? Can you put that into action? since you ought to.

When You Have to Make it Work
This is a prime illustration of the need to not solely rely on floor plans. A floor plan could be looked at, but it would not reveal the bed’s absolutely absurd placement. On paper, everything would presumably appear to be normal. This is why going on a tour and experiencing things firsthand is helpful!
But why is everything configured in this way? There doesn’t appear to be an adequate explanation for why things are the way they are. Yet, if there is, we have to acknowledge that this strategy would be incredibly original.

Clever Solutions to Unnecessary Problems
The majority of people believe that intelligence is admirable, but you know what’s even more admirable? Sometimes being clever is unnecessary. If this toilet had just been positioned correctly, something like this wouldn’t have even been necessary.
In this case, a walkthrough should have been done. If it had occurred, the resident would have at least realised that the door couldn’t close without hitting the toilet.

A Solution That Doesn’t Even Work
You wouldn’t want a situation like this in the first place because nobody wants their bathroom to be in the main living area. Yet, if you wanted to protect your privacy, having a partially transparent wall wouldn’t be all that useful.
We doubt many people would choose to rent or buy this house if they had seen how the living room and bathroom were set up. It kind of terrible since, if not for that, the whole thing would look really fantastic.

Who Allowed This One?
Despite the fact that this house isn’t necessarily illegal, it still seems a bit out of place, and the OP’s choice may have been influenced by a walkthrough. Who hacked this wall and door in half just now?
There appears to have been a complete wall there, but instead of demolishing it, they chose to divide it in half. It’s odd that it even exists, and looking at it is impolite and ignorant.

The Smallest of Irritants
The fact that a little inconvenience like a misaligned cooking top is not an emergency should be evident. Similar to many little issues, it seems as though there shouldn’t have been a purpose for something so little to happen in the first place, despite the fact that it is immensely frustrating to observe.
There is a potential of catching this even during a tour, but unless you light the burner, you wouldn’t be aware of it. Alternatively, perhaps the vendor or landlord would have to disclose it to you before you purchase from or rent from them.

Why Did it Have to Be This Way?
. As you look at this image, you might be left wondering why things had to be this way. Also, we don’t fully comprehend it. Did the pipes’ form need to be that way? Was the heater required to be placed where it is? It seems like a little bit of movement would have taken care of the problem.
We would not have chosen to buy or rent that house if we had known about that during a tour because it entirely obstructs that corner location. That appears dumb and pointless, to put it simply.

A Few Degrees Off
You wouldn’t expect encountering a silly issue like this if you were buying a house that was expensive enough to have a chandelier in the first place. Who on Earth could have missed such a significant issue before the house was fully constructed?
Or did they simply disregard it? This would have undoubtedly turned off anyone performing a walkthrough in some way. That could be rectified, but it would probably be very expensive. So why not select a nicer property now?

Sitting Diagnolly Forevermore
Speaking of bathrooms, this is just another illustration of how poorly they are placed. Yet since it appears to be in a house, this one is worse. Just picture how you’d have to sit on this toilet to utilise it.
She could have easily solved this problem if she had simply moved a little to the side. Someone who was trying to visit the institution but was turned away would have most likely been informed of this type of problem. Nobody ought to sit upon such a throne!

Why Would This See the Light?
Be sure that each door, cupboard, appliance, and window is open when performing a walkthrough of a house or apartment. The only way to know which of those genuinely works as they should is to actually do it.
If you don’t, you won’t be aware of problems like this. Hence, it only makes sense to look at nearly every square inch of the home or apartment, even if you simply do a fast tour. Avoid getting duped into purchasing pointless shelves!

All the Wrong Curvature
It may seem straightforward to direct your sink towards the sink’s basin, but whomever built this bathroom sink obviously had no idea how to make it work, which is kind of sad because it shouldn’t be that difficult.
By simply glancing at it, you can see how absurd this setup is, thus even a short overview would have shown it. He either refused to perform a walkthrough or lacked the technical knowledge to complete one, which was unfortunate for him.

A Life and Death Shower
Seriously — why are there so many electric outlets placed dangerously close to showers, sinks, and hoses? How many people building houses out there aren’t aware of how dangerous this is? It’s not exactly rocket science, you know?

We suppose this outlet is actually placed in a relatively safer way than some of the ones we have seen before, but that hardly makes things any better. It just shouldn’t have been that close in the first place, and a resident is likely unhappy about it.
Where Does it Lead and Why?
Would you still take a tour of a house before buying it if you discovered anything similar? It might be an artistic interpretation, but it just seems like a shoddy staircase.
Even though we assume all it is doing is taking up space, we would feel aggrieved if we discovered this during a walkthrough before purchasing or renting.

Look Before You Sign
Speaking of terrible flats, you should always examine the house you might be buying before making a purchase, no matter how desperate you are. If you don’t, you can discover that your bedroom is home to unidentified mushrooms.
Although the mushrooms are undoubtedly harmless if you don’t eat them, would anyone feel comfortable visiting a new location where an odd fungus was growing? Without a doubt, we wouldn’t be that.

Would Have Said No Otherwise
Most people would imagine that when they first move in, their new home will be fairly organised. Nevertheless, you must never presume that. You would have the opportunity to discover something this disgusting if you did a walkthrough before moving in, before signing any legal documents.
If all of your belongings were hidden away in cracks and nooks, would you really want to move into a home? Almost everyone would be turned off by anything as disgusting as this swarm of dead bugs.

A Different Type of Ceiling Décor
It is worthwhile to pay someone to inspect your home before you move in, even though it could be pricey. Why? Nevertheless, if you did, you could really be able to spot issues like these before they get out of hand.
If your ceiling isn’t in the best condition, we’re not sure how an inspector would discover it, but we’re positive they would. They might before someone goes through the ceiling, even if they don’t notice it.
