Opinions on septic system when flipping a home.

Taylor Stubbs
Posted

Here is the skinny... I have found a home that I am extremely interested in. 1800 sq/ft sits on 3/4 acre lot asking is 100k. It is in a rural area of texas about 15min outside of a small city. The home needs around 40k in rehab/renovation. My only concern is, the septic system. As far as I know it is in code and has been maintained over the years. It sits about 30 ft from the foundation. The earth around it has seemed to sag very little. I do have a foundation inspection scheduled as well as a septic inspection. My concern is; would having a septic throw red flags up to potential buyers? Would I be be limiting myself to a certain type of buyer?
