agree 'get it inspected' Posted by Scott Paterson [Email] (#13) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Scott Paterson) on Mon, 28 Mar 2005 15:53:04 In Reply to: A few thoughts..., Noel, Mon, 28 Mar 2005 13:39:28 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
We bought our house 8 years ago. We looked at over 50 - actually, we put a bid in on the first house we saw, but it had been sold that same day earlier, then it was another 25 until we found another and had it professionally inspected and found big structure problems. We passed entirely, and another 20 later found another and had it professionally inspected by the same guy who found a termite infestation in the rear aging deckwork. We still put in an offer minus the cost to fix that problem, but could not meet. 10 houses later and literally 10 houses away from that one, we found the one we eventually bought. Professional inspection by yet the same guy found it in excellent condition and it has proved to be that way. Just like buying a used Saab - have a professional mechanic inspect it (at the least I don't feel knowledgeable enough to entirely trust my own inspection of either).
Good luck!
