From the inbox: I’m buying a foreclosure, do I need a home inspection?
Good question!
The short answer is, “Yes.”
The longer answer is, “Yes, because while the bank or lender may not be willing to do any repairs, an inspection still empowers you, as it informs you as to the condition of your home.”
InterNACHI agrees with me. Or I agree with them. Either way, we are in agreement.
What if the home inspection comes back with problems?
FiscalGeek has a good rundown on options here. While a report with problems is stressful, it is not necessarily a deal breaker.
