home inspection
our home inspection was today. we use an inspector that we’ve had inspect another house before. he takes his time which is good. the house does need a lot of work but it’s mostly updating and upgrading stuff. it has good bones and there’s a lot of potential. we didn’t find out anything that would make us NOT purchase the house at this point. who ever owned the house before just did weird things.
the water heater is missing - which was a surprise to us - but we didn’t really pay much attention when we walk thru the house the first time. we new it needed a whole new kitchen and baths. we were surprised to find it had some nice hardwood floors under the badly stained carpet. hopefully the stains didn’t go all the way thru. the house just wasn’t maintained or taken care of. there’s a lot of holes in the walls, around the windows that they just stuffed tissue paper in. it’s just weird. they spent money on a tankless water heater - that they obviously took and a new garage door, but put paper to cover up the whole in the front door. it makes you wonder who lived there.
