5 Comments on Point of Sale
A point of sale inspection is an inspection by the county that is required prior to allowing the property to sell. Deficiencies or needs addressed by the county will need to be rectified within a certain timeline, generally before the transferred is allowed.
Regarding a well/septic inspection. A well inspection could pass but if the house is vacant, there could be a need for a well system shock even if it passed earlier at time of closing. I sold a house that passed the water inspection, then was delayed. The buyer agent wanted another inspection. I thought this was unnecessary and lo and behold if the house did not pass the second time! :)
We have that in Macomb County also. It's a pretty strict requirement: Pass or no go without a large escrow held to cover any repairs and/or replacement of system.
Yes, it can add more time to the sale of the home, but in all honesty we need to do everything we can to protect our waters.
I would love to know the same thing. They are considering implementing a point of sale ordinance here in Austin that would be focused on energy efficiency. Our board is working on educating everyone so that it does not happen. Keep us posted and let us know if yours passes.
