5 Westmont Street, Middletown (Do flippers know how to inspect a property)

[James McGovern]

Over the weekend, I went to inspect a property coming up for auction. I ran across several flippers who caused me to question a few things. They did not detect several major things wrong with this property including but not limited to:

1) a Leaking roof

2) No public water or sewer

3) The septic system is not working. The well is also dry

4) Prior upstairs renovations wll need to be town down and redone from scratch

One of the investors had brought along an inspector who also did not catch this. I continue to scratch my head wondering how many flippers never learned how to properly inspect an investment property?
