had planned to buy a new apartment (built around 1 year) but recently i noticed that there were some cracks the lower part of the apartment (ie, 5th floors. there are around 19th floor). the cracks appear near the windows.

there is also a construction nearby (a new block of apartment). will there be any problems in the future? considering that it was newly built.

kindly advice. Tq.

sorry, i did not describe it correctly.

the cracks are not inside the building. it is visible outside the building. i'm not sure how deep is the crack though. but i can see that they had kind of sealed it with something like cement (dark greyish colour).

correction, the block that i planned to buy does not have much crack. the one that has a lot of crack is just beside mine. but there's a small bridge connects the two block.

please follow the link as i only have flickr to upload my photos:

pics

cracks are normally in the lower units and the windows. went through the beams and there are no cracks at all.

kindly advice. tq.
