For the rest of their lives, they had to wait until the day of their return, and many people were rushing to get the keys, and they were overwhelmed with joy, and they signed the confirmation book. When we're in the yard or for six months, the walls fall, the bathroom leaks, the ground warms. And at this point in time, you'll have to take care of it yourself。
This was not a bluff, as was clearly written in the instruction case issued by the supreme people's court in march 2024, in which an owner did not look closely at the house and later found a leak in the bathroom, which resulted in a court decision that he had to bear 30 per cent of the loss because “the signing of the house was considered to have no objection to the hidden project”. Millions of houses have been bought, and they have to pay to fix the house for two hours
It was hard for everyone to check. Take a little hammer to the west and pour water on the toilet, all on the basis of experience and eyes. This earthly method, which was well placed in the old days of the furry house, is now becoming more sophisticated, more complex and less useful than two eyes alone. By 2025, the examination had been upgraded, and if i had only taken a roller to measure the room, i would have lost half before i entered the door。
We have to talk about "technology and hard work." it would have cost thousands to hire a professional examiner, and now the technology is decentralized, and hundreds of dollars of equipment will be able to run the house。
One of the most man's instruments is thermal imager. It used to be industrial and expensive, and now the price is already down, and $3,500 can buy a cell phone. Why are you using this? Because the naked eye can't see through walls, but the temperature can't fool. There was no water permeation in the walls, the pipes were broken, the heat was spread unevenly, thermal imager was photographed and the blue red was clearly visible。
The owner of a building in beijing was a clear man, and when the house was closed in may 2024, he brought his own heat imager. The developers were still bragging about the quality of the project, and as soon as the instrument opened, there was clearly an abnormally low-temperature area in the heating pipe, which was actually leaking. In this case, the developer had to pay $28,000. Without it, when the floor is laid and the house is found, the house becomes a “water curtain hole” in which the money and sins of breaking the floor and repairing the pipes are to suffer。
Apart from thermal imaging, the smartphones are not idle. The smart house-testing software on the market, the "house-checking" thing, is a life-saving straw for a rookie. Taking a picture of the wall, artificial intelligence algorithms can help you identify where there are cracks, where there are drums, and automatically generate electronic reports. This thing can be over 85 percent accurate and, while it cannot be a complete replacement for manual work, as a support tool, it can help you to pull out all the tiny defects that can easily be ignored by your eyes。
And the laser ranger. A hundred bucks. Don't pull the roller ruler over there. It's so soft, it's so high. A dozen lasers with a positive or negative margin of less than one millimetre, especially for friends who buy a double building, the floors are high enough, and the lasers know as soon as they are measured that the developers are trying to steal a reduction in size, and there are no doors。
Of course, it's not just about tools. It's about rules and rules。
Now, the developers are very sophisticated, and the delivery process is very clear to you, and it's usually you who sign the papers, pay for the property, and then the keys to the house. It's definitely the opposite, and it's a big hole. You signed it, you paid for it, and then you looked at the room, which is called "maintenance," not "receipt and acceptance," which is completely different。
It is important to recall here that in december 2023, the ministry of housing and construction amended its provisions, and now new provisions have been included in the model text of commodity house buying and sale contracts, and that developers are required to provide a separate receipt and inspection log for delivery. This watch is so important that it records the details of your receipt and inspection. Many developers, in order to save time or cover up problems, do not show them to their owners at all。
The first thing you do is not listen to the consultant, but reach out and ask for this watch. This is your legal right, under section 40 of the commodity house marketing scheme, if the developer is unable to take it out, you can refuse to take it in without being held liable for breach of contract. It's called a “scrambling” and many owners don't know it, and they're being fooled。
Get the watch, get in the house, and we'll go through the 10-step examination. From the entrance seal to the closedness of the window; from the verticality of the wall to the flatness of the ground. And that's when the empty drum hammer and laser ruler in your hand came in hand。
In particular, the area of water and electricity inspection is a disaster-prone area in the worst affected areas. Don't just look at the light. It's not that big. Thermal imager will be used to sweep all water pipes through the line to see if there are hidden leaks. Many of the pipes are buried in the walls, and it will be three autumns late once the sandy eyes are slowly permeating, the naked eyes are invisible, and when the wall's skin is sorely hairy, it will be found。
What if we find out what's wrong? That is the most critical step。
Don't believe in words. The consultant said, "don't worry, i'll fix it in two days." you have to write all the problems, even a little bump in the corner, on a written receipt, or print them out directly using the smart checkout software。
It is important that representatives of developers sign the list of issues. And if they refuse to sign, or if they don't give a shit about the problems you've found, say, "it's a normal error" or "no instrument" or whatever. Consumer associations now offer the path: if developers do not cooperate, they go to a third-party institution to check directly, and if the cost is caused by housing quality problems, the developer will have to pay。
I can't. There's more. Many cities now have a network of building officers or 12345 hotlines that provide a dedicated channel for complaints, including cities such as hangzhou and chengdu, which also have a platform called "housing cloud surveillance". You pass the evidence on, and the regulatory department intervenes a hundred times more than you do on the table in the sales room。
Remember, the house is not a walk-in or a gift, it is a hard war on asset protection. The house is the most valuable home in the hands of our people and may even be a family for half a lifetime。
We're not in trouble, but we can't be afraid. Take all the dozens of dollars of empty drum hammers and hundreds of pieces of technical equipment and keep the legal provisions in mind. The examination was done with a lot of thought, even if it was described as a “spoiler”, and it was better than the day after the day after, when they lived in it, they cried at the molded walls。
Don't wait until you're in the house and cry out. In 2025, we're going to have to gather in 2025 so that developers who want to make a difference in quality have no place in technology or law. It's not just self-responsibility, it's forcing the whole industry to make the house more decent. At the end of the day, is it too much to ask for a safe and stable home? Not at all。
