CAVEAT EMPTOR-BUYER BEWARE

Karl negligently failed to tell us that the gas oven was faulty and not operational. I didn't request a building and pest inspection as I assumed that appliances and the swim spa would be operational. However two gas companies inspected the gas system . I had one of the most experienced gas company in Cairns inspect the oven and gas. They informed me that the oven could have blown up and gas was leaking for some time which could have caused an explosion outside. The gas regulator had been faulty for a long time and was defective. Karl's property manager could not start the oven upon pre-inspection. We had to have the complete gas system and oven removed and dumped. Neither could Karl's property managercstart the swimjet spa which had a defective and dangerous electrical system. Obviously these hazards would have been observed prior to marketing. In my opinion this puts doubt upon Karl's integrity and the integrity of Twomey Schriber. BTW, we had increased our bid by $20,000 from our original written offer and you'd expect everything to operate. Due to the oven drama going on and on we were without a cooker for two weeks. Sadly the experience was not professionally handled. As a suggestion if you sign a contract with Karl, under inclusions, add 'All appliances and equipment must be operational prior to settlement '.
