These have two very different next steps.If it is a condo, you need to check your condo docs and see where the unit ends and what is common area. if its a leak in a pipe in a wall that is typically common owner and the condo association should take care of it.

However, the main message I want to make here is that please do your proper due diligence, don't believe anything you read and you're told and scratch below the surface.

I do know that most people hate click bait and so many of the real estate groups I'm a part of do similiar things to keep post engagement up and that drives me up a wall!

Good luck with that behind a wall.

Who knew about the condition of the wiring inside those old walls?

Removing a wall could add value to the home in theory, but for some rental areas, having extra rooms helps.

It could even be impossible....Some inspectors will insist that walls be opened to view wiring/framing/plumbing/etc, floors be jackhammered up to show vapor barrier and rebar spacing.Ask me how I know........

Household furniture must be positioned and/or elevated to allow adequate air flow underneath and between furnishings and adjacent walls.

If you open up the wall to do something, you will need a permit for plumbing and electrical a lot of the time because they will want to see behind the wall before you close it.

It’s easy to feel discouraged when the rewards aren’t immediate, but growth is happening beneath the surface.
