Mark G. Phillips - BUYING YOUR FIRST HOME

not refuse to operate whenever the temperature goes below 45 degrees is generally enough reason to have a home inspection. Engage specialists to check the air conditioning system, plumbing, and electricity. This could save you thousands of dollars by uncovering existing issues. Even new houses need to be checked duly and thoroughly. It does not matter that the house recently had all its municipal inspections done by the builder.

#4. Have a Pest Inspection

The best approach here is to hire a licensed pest inspection company. They will check your future property for contamination by flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, fleas, rats, mice, bedbugs, termites, beetles, critters, carpenter bees, ants, and a variety of other types of pests. They will also check mold growth and other possible environmental health threats caused by lead, fungus, and asbestos. There is no need to explain how much harm even a small number of termites can do. These issues will inevitably lead to major repair expenses and even health issues, so it’s best to have them identified as early as possible. The presence of any kind of contamination is reason enough to demand a renegotiation of terms, or to rethink the deal completely.
