HOME BUYERS.....
You Have a Right to Know...
Seller disclosures don't always include all the information you need to make a good decision. Many sellers aren't aware of problems within their home. In some cases, sellers can't resist the temptation to conceal the truth about its problems. Either way, this makes having a home inspection critical in revealing the existing conditions of a home and its elements before buying.
In addition, many real estate agents have limited knowledge about the elements of a home and their function, required maintenance and realistic life expectancy. The onus is always on the home buyer to determine if the disclosure form is accurate. Verification is paramount.
Having a home inspection report that presents the facts of the home's current condition at the time of inspection is critical in helping the buyer determine if the house is right for them.
Fact - Home buying requires due diligence. Ask questions.
Become informed. Remove emotion. Choose wisely.
So What's the Difference?
Plenty. Choose wisely. Not all home inspectors or home inspection companies are created equal. As a home buyer, you want your inspector to be an experienced and knowledgeable ally that will be as thorough as possible in their inspection of the property, with a report that gives you the current condition of the property at the time of inspection.
What makes Bobby Bush unique and set apart from most other home inspectors is 20+ years experience as a real estate investor in the buying, rehabbing and selling of properties, as well as an extensive background in cost & risk assessment, project planning and contingencies for rehabbing properties.
Knowing what to look for is part of inspecting a home, yes, but the more important view is understanding the difference between cosmetic repairs and elements that are close to the end of their useful life. In many cases, things may look okay but are far from it. Being realistic about how much planning and expense might be involved in upgrading or rehabbing is part of buying any property, regardless of age.
