Tips: How to avoid buying a haunted house when buying a second-hand house?

Compared with new houses, many second-hand houses have the characteristics of good quality and low price, which are favored by many buyers with relatively poor economy. The key to buying a house is peace of mind and comfort. If the second-hand house you bought hits a haunted house, it must be an unhappy thing. How can I avoid buying a haunted house when buying a second-hand house?

1. What is a haunted house?

At present, the haunted house we mainly talk about refers to houses or places where unnatural deaths such as murder, suicide, accidents and major infectious diseases have occurred. Of course, it does not include natural deaths and normal deaths of the elderly. At present, our country's laws do not regard haunted houses as physical defects, so in some previous cases, it is often impossible to check out after buying haunted houses.

How to avoid buying a haunted house?

(1) Pre-purchase survey

1. Note that the house price is lower than the market price.

Generally speaking, if the house price is much lower than the market price, there is definitely a problem.

2. Visit the community.

If the house is a haunted house, there will be discussions in the community more or less, which is easy to find. Easy to find places are neighborhood committees, property companies, and next-door neighbors.

3, query the news

Search this community online and see if there are any relevant news reports. Like some serious criminal cases, some media will report them publicly.

4. Appraisal of real estate license

If the house is old, but the date of issuing the real estate license is late, ask the owner whether to inherit the house or buy a second-hand house. If it is inheritance, we must ask the reason why the former owner died and what happened, so we must know clearly.

5. Ask the police station

If there is a murder or homicide, the local police station will record it. However, the police station is not obliged to disclose this information to everyone, and needs to be accompanied by the owner (sometimes even if the owner is present, he will not check it).

6. Ask the broker

For a broker who has been deeply involved in a certain field for a long time, he should be concerned about the major events around him. Then, if you encounter a house with a low quotation, you may wish to make some associations and ask questions. It should be easy to tell if it's a haunted house.

(2) Field investigation

1. Is there a religious memorial exhibition in the house?

If you encounter this kind of house, you must know whether the owner's work is pure faith or other reasons.

2. Pay attention to the deformation of the big door frame.

Under normal circumstances, when the door frame has been deformed, twisted and has holes, we should be very careful, which generally means that the house has not been inhabited for a long time.

3. Is there moss and mildew on the edge of the balcony?

Usually, the balcony is an important place for lighting. If moss or even mildew has appeared on the balcony wall or wall foot, this is the evidence left by poor drainage, which has a particularly obvious impact on people's health.

The wall is covered with spells or gourds.

If there are ominous things in many places in the house, such as the top of the door or the wall, which are covered with many spells or hung with many gourds and other pendants, buyers must be alert to this kind of house.

5. Houses with excessive huxing changes should also be carefully looked at.

Some units now, once you enter, you will find that they have been obviously enlarged. For this kind of apartment, you can't say that you must not buy it, you must learn to analyze it. For example, we can properly understand whether these people moved to a big house after the transition or moved away for other reasons. Generally, great changes have taken place in the house. After the changes, it is either good luck or disaster. So judging by this standard is quite credible.

(3) Risk control when signing a contract

Because there is no definition of haunted house in law, naturally, this information is not listed as an information item that must be made public. In other words, the owner has the obligation to inform the house of physical defects, but the haunted house obviously does not belong to physical defects and does not belong to the mandatory notification project.

However, if it is stipulated in the contract that the owner must disclose the information of the haunted house, then the owner's failure to disclose it is a major concealment, and there is also a basis for requesting to cancel the contract or return the house in the future. Therefore, whether for property buyers or intermediaries, it is necessary to stipulate this item in the entrustment contract and the purchase contract.
