If you are the buyer, you need to speak with your home inspector so that he may advise you on the potential severity of the problem. It may very well be the case that your home inspector recommends further evaluation by a licensed professional in the specific area of concern such as HVAC, electrical, plumbing, etc.

If your lender requested that you have the inspection, you should also provide your lender with a copy of the report. At this point you should decide if this is a home deal that you and your lender are comfortable closing. Many times lenders require the seller to remedy the issues noted in the house before they will provide funding. AREA, LLC. does follow up inspections (ask us about pricing).

If you are a buyer and you decide that the issues are not that critical, you may ask the seller to reduce the sales price by the amount of the repairs. Often times sellers are willing to do this. The key is not to let the home inspection report scare you. Talk to your home inspector and ask questions! You may very well find that the issue you thought was severe was not that critical.

If you are the seller and your home inspection report reveals problems, this is your opportunity to decide which way you wish to go. You can choose not to remedy the problems but offer to reduce the sales price or you can choose to have the issues resolved and remain firm with your price. It is strictly up to you. The critical issue to remember is that at least you spent a small amount to find out these issues before they became a deal killer! And you can even use your home inspection report as a marketing tool to show your potential buyers the condition of your home! AREA, LLC. will host your report on our web site free of charge provided we do your home inspection! You can give your family, friends, and potential buyers the link so they can review the report. It is that simple!
