If i was a building manager i would be likely to call someone like you out for my own buildings, not because of any customer complaints, but to prevent them, as well as prevent damage. I'm surprised that thats not a standard service anywhere.
I actually wish I had my new home inspected (built by Morningstar in 2009/2010)... not because anything was wrong, but, it would have given peace of mind because one definitely cannot depend on the builder (regardless of the builders reputation) to ensure things are done right.
Great vid man! This MAY guilt some of the strata "overlords" into actually going up and looking! My old place- same issues! I used to go up and look around... lol. Imagine the smell if a bird got jammed in those open vents! Keep up the good work! Look for a lapel mike that will pair with your phone...or even a secondary person to film while you do the presentation and narration. :)
Are those all pipes (the aluminum chimney ones), do they ventilate the space between the ceiling and the rooftop? And what about those smaller pipes.. are they for sewer-pipes ventilation? Aha... I hear "gas-fireplaces" ... for the first ones.. Must have been a very hard wind.. And man oh man... what a lot of rusty things, not really bad, but the structure will weaken. Filter maintenance seems to be overlooked a lot of times. Good work, weird that some property owners do not let you on their roof.
That may or may not be true on the ownership issue, I don't have access tot he terms of the contract. But think of it like buying a house without checking the flood ratings, crime statistics, traffic levels/patterns, the condition of the street it is on, and whether or not the utilities like power, water and sewer are functional in the neighborhood. You may not have a standing to demand they be fixed before you buy, but information on deficiencies, and how the "owner" of those deficiencies responds to that information, can definitely influence your decision on whether or not to buy.
Hi Tom. You're voice in this video is really quiet and sounds like it's getting washed out by background noise or something. Better sound quality would help this video a lot.

why did he deny you access to the roof?
If you’re going to buy a condo, get an inspector. Your fees will be paying for all the repairs to be done.

Corey Lambrecht Yes, he does. Had a lot of reactions from him... sooooo
None of that belongs to your owner so it’s not for you to inspect. They own inside there unit that’s it.
