As you begin your journey looking for a new home, remember your expenses extend past the home’s purchasing and closing costs. You will face out-of-pocket costs shortly after the closing. Expenses such as moving, furnishings, paints, renovations, and simply filling your house with food, paper products, cleaning supplies will add up quickly. #conceptblog

If the inspector finds something – like foundation issues, septic problems, or needed roof repairs – you have the “option” to back out of buying the home. Anytime after – or outside – of option period, you cannot back out of the contract. If you do, you will lose your earnest money – which can be thousands of dollars. #conceptblog

When you get a home inspection, the inspector will attempt to find as many of these defects as possible. Once you have the inspection report in hand, you can request that the seller repair the items found. They may agree, decline, or in some cases, offer you “repair credits” instead. These essentially lower the selling price, giving you more cash to do the repairs yourself once you own the home. Your job as a buyer is to figure out which issues warrant a repair request with the sellers, and which you’ll ask for cash for, handle yourself, or let slide altogether. #conceptblog
