Home Inspector. Go Flight

[kathygnome]

We had the home inspection yesterday. The guy was incredible. He just checked everything. Even little stuff that I've never seen like finding a removed dead wire and opening the nearest junction box to make sure that when they pulled it, they terminated everything correctly. It took 2 1/2 hours. And he has a list of little things that ought to get done at some point, which will be very helpful. Lots of good suggestions about what to do when we replace the roof, which was something the owner already had contracted, so we'll see about integrating those or having her contract cancelled and a corresponding price drop on the house so we can do it later. 

And everything looks ok. Basically what we thought. A lot of routine maintenance that needs to get done sometime in the next couple of years and nothing that means the house is going to fall down.So I'll be talking to Elizabeth today about getting a Purchase & Sale and lease drawn up and then we'll be hiring painters.

So yeah, it looks like a done deal other than putting ink to paper.
