Looking for some fun? Whatever you do, Don't Click Here!

If you’ll buy a home, it’s only right that you want to get one that’s worth it.

No home is absolutely perfect. You should expect to have to spend something on your new home. As industry experts tell us, new homeowners can spend an average of $6,000 within the first six months. In a time when you should be looking at paint samples and new furniture, why would you want to spend your time on repairing what you just bought?

You can gain a lot with a professional home inspection. You should get an inspector that is a member of an association that has strict requirements for membership, like the American Society of Home Inspectors and the National Association of Home Inspectors.

The inspector should give you a list of what the inspection will result in. For example, some inspectors would not inspect for termites, moulds, or indoor air quality. The inspector should also make it known to you that the report will not be a guarantee. The inspector is also not responsible for any repairs that would result from his report.

But even though you hire an inspector, you are still responsible for doing a little investigating yourself. For instance, you can still hire a termite inspector even if your lender won’t require it. Ask the inspector to look for all kinds of pests. Termites are just one type of pest that can damage houses. So do carpenter bees, rats, squirrels and scorpions.

You can be given a disclosure form together with the signed contract for purchase. Many states require that the seller fill out this disclosure. But take care not to rely on this report only. Many issues are forgotten about or not considered major by the owner. The basement got wet twice in the last decade, but it can be a forgotten occurrence.

Disclosure issues usually occur because buyers would expect the disclosure to have more power than it really does. You should make sure that the inspector has a copy of the disclosure and will look at any issues that the seller has brought up.

It’s very important that you find out everything about a home, the neighborhood, the market conditions, and the mortgage options. Knowing these will let you negotiate with lenders and sellers better. Make sure that you have a full understanding of each step.
