The Home Buying Process

     

    The Process

    Buying a house is likely to be one of the largest investments you make in your life.  The first step is the most important and that’s deciding that you are ready to purchase property.

    Home Inspection Ins & Outs

    Whether or not you are buying a new property or have an existing one, a homeowner should obtain a professional inspection of their house every couple of years. This simple task can break the bank and send you into additional unnecessary expense. Hiring a professional will disclose all the necessary repairs and will certainly save you on the hassle of dealing with repairs and save you a ton of money.  An inspection should be done especially if the property underwent large renovations.

    Most home inspections are completed as a part of the property acquisition. As part of the home inspection, things being evaluated are electrical and structural, plumbing and heating.  Other things, such as prevention and maintenance, are discussed during the home inspection with the professional.
