Tanya talks about the home inspection and how it is not intended to scare the seller or buyer, but the inspection almost always finds a few issues…

Tanya Rankin: Good Morning. It’s Tanya Rankin in beautiful William Lakes. It’s been a little bit since I blog due to some technical difficulties last week with our little video camera so I apologized for that. But I wanted to talk to about home inspections. I guess what I’ve been thinking about a lot is that people is, often the seller thinks will go in to a home inspection and there won’t be anything that will comes up. They say what will be a wrong in our home. But I guess I want you to think that there’s always something. There’s always something unexpected that comes up. It’s very rare that I’ve ever had a home inspection go through that he said everything is perfect. We’re usually dealing with older homes here in the Cariboo, they are not new construction so there’s something small issues that arise and often sometimes there’s the add big ones as well. One thing to keep in mind when were doing a home inspection is a lot of the things have probably been addressed at the time when the realtor priced the property. So for example a roof often it’s obvious if that roof’s gonna need a replacing and that isn’t necessarily something even though the home inspector points it out, it’s not a surprise. That’s why that property was priced the way it was to start with. And from a buyers perspective, just try to keep in perspective that a home inspectors job is to point out any deficiencies in a home and things that can be improve upon. But its not to alarm you or scare you. Whenever there’s an issue arises we can usually work through them together. So I think keep that in mind whenever having an home inspection done, realize there’s going to be stuff that comes up, if there’s something that’s quite a concern address it with your realtor and we’ll work through it together so that we can still have a positive result for both parties. On that note, I hope you have a great week. Enjoy the rodeos this weekend and I look so forward to talking to you again next week. Have a great day and you can email me anytime at tanya@tanyarankin.com.
