Question 7: Condition of the outside walls, roof and floor

For each case you should make an appreciation that will permit you to judge in what state each of the parts of the building are in, the outside walls, the roof and the floor. If any doubt exists, investigate with the enumerated person.

[To the right of the text is a form.]

Select and mark with "X" the correct responses, according to the following criteria:

Poor: Major structural deterioration is present that requires a partial or total substitution of the affected areas: sunken or rotten bases, cracks, holes, etc.

These anomalies constitute an immediate danger for the inhabitants of the dwelling since it leaves them at the mercy of rain, wind, collapses and other possible mishaps that are against their wellbeing.

Fair: Some deterioration or structural defect is present, that requires repair: damaged planks, missing bricks, small cracks, etc.

These damages, nevertheless, do not constitute an imminent danger for the residents of the dwelling.

Good: The parts represent no deterioration: cracks, holes, sinking, etc, nor any structural flaws.
