Hey everyone! I recently purchased a new home and I noticed that the support pillars seem to be bowing a bit. Should I be worried about this? Here's a picture for reference: https://imgur.com/a/8PGR9gn.

Did you get an inspection report? If there were no issues listed, you might be in the clear!

I live in a place where you have to waive your inspection to buy a home, so that wasn’t an option.

Keep in mind that wood tends to swell and shrink and houses settle over time. It's probably nothing to stress over!

Thanks, I’m just a bit paranoid since this is my first home!
