Last year, I had two clients who thought they could find their own inspectors. Little did they know that those inspections wouldn't provide them the real scope needed for certain repairs in the house.
‌
When I open escrow for a buyer, I start with four inspections: roof, general home, termite, and sewer. Just this week, we had to go further to get a full plumbing inspection, a deck inspection, an electrical inspection and a window replacement quote. All of this helped us get a $50,000 credit from the seller for repairs!
‌
It's true that YouTube and Yelp are great ways to investigate businesses, but there's nothing as good as a professional realtor who works in the specific market and has trusted vendors that can come at the drop of the hat and give quotes for specific repairs needed on a property.
‌
Just like Progressive can save you money on insurance, our team can help you save money when buying a home. We understand the process, and the importance of having the right inspections in place to get the best deal.
‌
Don't take the risk of buying a home without the proper inspections. Reach out to our team and trust our knowledge to help you make the right decisions.
