Home Inspection Issues-Cressy & Everett Real Estate

When buying a home, the seller should disclose any problems or information that would otherwise make you reconsider purchasing their home. But sometimes these things are only revealed after a home inspection.

Don't let a home inspection discourage you entirely from purchasing a home, though. Our real estate agents have been on both ends of home inspection issues and have a few tips and tricks for helping you work through them with the seller.

  • Get It in Writing
    Before you get too far, make sure that your contract has provisions for what happens if something goes awry during the home inspection. In most cases, basic contracts have wording that allows you as the buyer to request or schedule a home inspection within a number of days from the contract being signed. 

    Unfortunately, that's where most of it ends and there is very little detail outlining what happens or who is responsible for repairs if something is found to be unsatisfactory. At this point, it's up to you to negotiate with the seller to find a fair and equitable solution, or, better yet, leave this part to your real estate agent to negotiate on your behalf.

A pre-listing inspection is a great way to get ahead of any potential maintenance issues, and a clean inspection is also a powerful marketing tool that can help get your home sold. Our real estate agents have five reasons why a pre-listing inspection is a great idea for sellers.

Guard against unseen dangers

Home safety makes your house a refuge for you to enjoy. When people are at home, they want to feel completely at peace within a space that's uniquely theirs. Unfortunately, there can be unseen dangers that follow you even here.

Over the past several years, Americans have become much more alert to issues such as lifestyle and health. However, people still struggle with a number of "invisible dangers" that can be life-threatening despite our best efforts. Many of these are found right in your home.
