Possible Piering in Baement, Should I go for it?

Jamie Richter
Posted

Howdy,
I'm new to the site and this is my first Forum post. I am looking at purchasing a property to live in for a year and then rent. I will be doing this repeatedly to build my list of investment properties. I am interested in a home that I heard may have had piers int= the basement. I called the agent and it sounds as if the issue was really with the front porch allowing water under it and causing water to leak into the basement. I called the agent and acted like it was no big deal. I want to see the disclosures, but should I just bounce and keep looking? It's a great house and the price is perfect - surprisingly under what I would expect, which makes me suspicious. I would definitely have a structural engineer do an inspection if moving forward, but the question is...should I?
Danke!
