Is there a support beam missing?
I am looking to purchase our first home that was built in 1920. The house itself has been wonderfully maintained and remodeled. My Realtor had pointed out a removal of a wall between the dining area and living room, which gave the room a more open floor plan. Upon looking more carefully, we noticed the beam going across the top of the ceiling dips down a little. My realtor asked the agent if the current owners did the work to see if it was approved by a building inspector. They didn't do the remodeling and have been in the house for 31 years. The beam has not been an issue. We will obviously have an inspector look but for the heck of it, I thought I would post a pic here to see if anyone has experience with this type of issue.
The picture is hard to see, but where the two beams meet is where it dips down a little. [IMG]
