I’m in the middle of buying my first Singe family home in Texas. I got it at $82k (listed at $84,900) , but the home inspection came back with several deficiencies. For example all windows don’t open (all windows have new blinds) , wiring exposed under the sink, rotten wood , damaged shingles , unlevel sidewalk, exposed romex wiring in laundry rm, damaged siding , & no drain pan for water heater . What should I do?? Time to negotiate !!

@Jeremy Torres it’s in the area of multiple other townhomes and duplexes it’s in a B+ neighborhood

@Daniel Z Fang it doesn't give HOA costs but asking price is $105,000 , on market for 280 days ,

New landlord here..

There’s 2 townhomes for sale. One has been on market for 280 days the other for 144 days. And the third one is currently owned and occupied by someone else - I assume.

The 280 days one is nicer than the 144 days one.

Should I buy one and rent it out ? Offer a much lower price ? Good/bad deal ? Pros/cons of townhome?

Neighbors on other side of wall pros/cons ?

@Clay O. Would you ever consider installing central air ?

@Nick B. Yes it was built in 1954 . Completely & fully remodeled . There window units already installed 1 in dining/living area and 1 in each bedroom

785sq ft.

5,301sq ft lot

@Matthew Paul it already has window units in. 1 in each bedroom and one in the dining/living area.

@John Underwood so offer about $7k less than the listing price ? So about $80k

@Matthew Paul it was built in 1954 but it’s recently remodeled as if it was built yesterday.

785sq ft

5,301 sq ft lot

There’s a 2bd/1ba home for $88,000 in south Texas for sale, but it doesn’t have central A/C but it is FULLY remodeled new flooring windows paint & appliances . Would y’all buy a home without central ac?

Also this is going to be an investment property in the future.
