They purchased the house in July 2021 from the original buyer, a year after it had been built as part of a 100-home subdivision by Marina Homes.

But after dealing with a host of problems, from leaking windows and roof to extensive water damage and persistent mould, they said they soon discovered an even bigger issue.

The foundation is not strong enough to support the house, an engineering firm hired by the couple determined earlier this year.

"It is recommended that the building be completely demolished," said the report seen by CBC Hamilton.
