When we work with first-time homebuyers, they're o When we work with first-time homebuyers, they're often surprised by what happens during a home inspection. ⁣
⁣
Here's what we wish someone had told us beforehand:⁣
⁣
🔍 Always attend your inspection in person.⁣
❓ Don’t be shy about asking questions!⁣
🛠 Understand what's a major issue versus a minor repair.⁣
🏠 Remember that no house is perfect (even new construction).⁣
📋 Don't panic at the length of the inspection report—focus on structural, electrical, plumbing, and safety concerns first.⁣
⁣
We help our clients navigate inspections and explain what issues typically warrant renegotiation and which ones don't. Contact us if you have questions about the inspection process!⁣
