1. Roof Damage from Sun Exposure
Extreme heat weakens shingles and roofing materials.
2. Failing HVAC Systems
Las Vegas AC units work harder than almost anywhere in the country.
3. Electrical Panel Issues
Improper wiring or outdated panels can be safety hazards.
4. Foundation Cracks
Desert soil movement can impact structural stability.
5. Plumbing Leaks
Especially under sinks and in slab foundations.
6. Poor Drainage Around the Property
Improper grading can lead to long-term damage.
7. DIY Repairs
Unpermitted or poorly done repairs are common.
Why This Matters:
Knowing about these issues before closing gives buyers negotiating power.
