Purchasing a home is a huge life decision. Therefore, it’s critical that when buying a home you are aware of what could be some major red flags. To avoid costly expenses ask questions to the seller, your realtor, and your lender about the property and the possible issues it may have.
When you walk-through a property it is important that you know what to look for, the seller may not always be truthful and disclose certain information. This can help in making the decision to hire a professional home inspector.
If you do find mold or water contact a certified (or licensed, needed in some states) contractor to inspect and provide an estimate on the remediation.
Good luck with the home buying process and remember these important home-buying red flags!
