Over a period of time every house requires repairs for a number of problems like leaking taps, door problems, rusted grills and gates, wiring problems. The problem will be particularly severe in tropical areas where heavy monsoon can damage a home to a great extent. Repairs for a major home related problem can take a longer time and are more expensive.
Hence it remains important to detect the problem at an early stage, so that suitable action can be taken to correct the problem at the earliest.The home owner should periodically inspect the home for the different types of problems which occur, especially during monsoon. A repair person should be called immediately after the problem is detected and should be told to fix the leaking roof, ceiling, tap, or broken pipe at the earliest.
At the time of selling the home or getting a loan with the home as a collateral, the home valuation service provider will consider the condition of the home before deciding on the home value. Homes which require repairs are priced much lower compared to other homes in the same locality which are in perfect condition and do not require any repairs.
