home inspectors-are they necessary?
3 May 2007 | 20 replies
What I do find challenging though, is that unless they can interpret the inspection, lots of little things that need repair might translate to the investor that there is too much wrong with the house, where in fact they are small, inexpensive fixes.I have also had deals where my buyers opted to save their $300 and got saddled with some big expensive fixes that would have been caught in an inspection, and we could have renegotiated the price of the deal or had the seller fix the problems.A friend of mine, and quite a seasoned investor, purchased a house from the president of her REI group, and trusted him to give her a sound house.

Mike,this is for a home for myself, the lease/purchase scenerio is in the case that I'm unable to get a conventional mortgage and instead have an investor friend of mine do the purchase with a hard money loan and then give me the lease/purchase agreement for about 6 months so I can work on getting my credit score to a better level.lesson learned, bad credit is a killer.
