Buying A Home From The Home Inspectors Perspective
If you are considering buying a home, you will soon discover that there are an overwhelming number of companies out there clamoring for your attention. Everyone in the real estate industry has something to sell or something to profit from regarding your interest in purchasing real estate. For homeowners wanting to sell, to banks wanting to unload REO properties, to agents wanting to help you find the perfect home (which does not exist), to contractors, insurance agents and, Professional Home Inspectors like me.
There is a vast amount of soul searching that must happen when considering the purchase of a home. Just a few of these difficult questions may include:
Why do I want to buy a home Where do I want to live What can I afford What financing do I qualify for Should I buy a newly constructed home Should I buy a foreclosed home Should I buy an older home Can I afford to maintenance on a home Do I want a house or a condo How do I choose a Realtor What about a home inspection Can I get a home warranty Suburbs, inner city or rural What can I get for my money ... more
