When they give you a “failed items list” they aren’t always real specific as to what those items actually are which can cause problems in getting them corrected.

In your opinion, is it unwise to buy an older house due to the fact that things are likely to start going bad/failing and will need replaced?

However some things to keep in mind. 87% of people who become agents fail out of the industry altogether.$45-50k is the median income of people in the industry.3, that will be likely the first year you turn a profit just like every other small business.

I have heard the number one reason that marriages fail is money.

I also fail to understand how a front tire can be flat from a TREE LIMB that you BACKED over from the driveway??

They clearly have an internal talent issue, major ongoing platform integration issues, failed partnerships (Yapstone), and probably a bunch of MBA pricing consultants pitching hair brained ideas to “optimize” fees.

It turns out, the house failed the Florida mandated four-pointe inspection for three reasons, double-taps in the electric panel, corroded water pipe at the water heater and a leak in the roof.  

Some succeed but most fail.

Yep, and failing all these, send a friendly attorney letter requesting a copy, there is usually a duty to provide a copy under certain circumstances.

I would also look into converting to a propane system, I have been to a few housed where oil tanks have failed and the result is a condemned house and long repair times.
