The consumer needs to be sure they aren’t getting into a home that’s a real problem with major issues. It’s also important to note that it’s very common for an inspector to find many things that need to be addressed. Many items are very simple and should not be any cause for alarm. It’s important you have a Realtor on your side to help guide you through the process and let you know what may be a real cause for concern and what’s not worth losing a home over while negotiating repairs.
Below is a top 10 list put together by one of our local home inspectors…….
1) Termites
2) Wood Rot & Trim Damage
3) Moisture in the crawl space- Drainage Issues
4) Roofing Problems
5) HVAC Problems- clogged CDL line, etc
6) Windows- Broken seal, painted shut
7) Garage Doors- auto reverse, etc
Electrical Problems- Aluminum wiring-open grounds
9) Plumbing Problems- Disimilar metals, etc
10) Structural Issues- suppport piers, etc
