Certain issues may be a deal breaker, like a collapsing foundation, but many other issues can and should be repaired after negotiation with the seller.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the most common problems inspectors say they uncover:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Defective plumbing: Leaky faucets or problems with the efficiency of pipes can greatly affect the cost of a home&#8217;s utilities.<\/li>\n<li>Water damage: This can be caused by any number of issues, such as erosion of external grading material that has caused a slow leak into a basement. Water leaks also can lead to damage in a foundation or mold growth.<\/li>\n<li>Faulty roofing materials: Variable temperatures can cause cracks in some roofing materials, while other materials may be prone to rots or leaks.<\/li>\n<li>Cracked foundation: Foundation problems can surface from any number of issues, such as water damage, termites, rotting, or structural inadequacy.<\/li>\n<li>Over-worked electricity system: This also can represent a big safety issue. Inspectors say when they find an overcrowded wiring system it\u2019s typically due to previous owners making adjustments to the electrical wiring.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Source: \u201cCommon Issues Found During the Home Inspection,\u201d Ferris Property Group (May 11, 2016)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Problems Uncovered in Home Inspections &nbsp; Even a house that seems perfect may not be so when it comes to a home inspection, which is meant to discover potential problems with the home&#8217;s systems, appliances, and structure. &#8220;Depending on the age, location, and type of house, the potential for problems will vary,&#8221; according to an &hellip; <\/p>\n<p><a class=\"more-link btn\" href=\"http:\/\/www.anthonydidonato.net\/wordpress\/problems-uncovered-home-inspections\/\">Continue reading<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16,8],"tags":[5,32,4,9],"class_list":["post-9643","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-real-estate-tips","tag-anthony-didonato","tag-news","tag-real-estate","tag-tips","item-wrap"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
