PEST CONTROL: Your Rental Unit has been inspected and deemed to be pest-free.

As for security in occupied houses, I don’t have a definite solution - it’s just that opening doors is a low-value task that a busy buyer’s agent probably shouldn’t want to handle.Any decent listing agent will make sure a buyer has at least visited the property before submitting an offer, otherwise their chances of backing out during their inspection/ due diligence window is much higher.

So for those who may be following my journey via Forum Posts, I had a home inspection on the Remington rowhome and the roof was poorly redone and may be a deal killer.

It may impact someone who already has an existing respiratory issue, but it won't cause illness in a healthy individual.I recommend inspecting the property and determining the source of moisture.

Get the inspection but remember they are looking for hazards and not considering what repairs will do to the final value or monthly rent.

Inspection Costs - $400 Lender Fees - $1,000 Closing Costs - $2,000 Mortgage Payments - $2,500 Property Taxes - $600 Utilities - $1,000 Insurance - $200 Commissions - $4,000 Selling Closing Costs - $4,000 Home Warranty - $500 Termite Letter - $100 MLS Fees - $100 

You could also ask if you could do your inspection prior to going under contract and then make an offer without the inspection contingency. 

We had our 3-year township CO inspection today and were told that we need to have smoke / CO detectors that alerted both sixes of a duplex property. 

It went through a full inspection and there were minor repairs ($1500) - in retrospect, the inspector missed some things. 

I have done several independent septic inspections.
