always check out the contractors work to see if they have lawsuits against them for many reasons

Great idea. How/where would you check on a lawsuit? Educate me!

I've lived in houses with galvanized plumbing for almost 30 years without a problem. As to noise, the Section 8 housing I used to live two houses away from was 100x noisier than the nearby train tracks. When I bought my current house, my lender made the sellers replace the roof. My big no-no would be buying a house on one of Indy's many flood plains.

@@lorimiller623 Yes, a flood plain would definitely be an item to take seriously. You need to know if the current resident is paying flood insurance and whether or not your lender would require it. It can be expensive!

We needed minor repairs and major electrical done on our home. Realtor got the seller to fix. After a year we just removed two trees close to the home and pruned back a few big branches that were over the roof.

Good for you. It's very important to keep up the maintenance on the home to protect its value.

I work for a person that did this type of stuff strip the house down to studs remove a lot of supports to make an open floor plan use a lot of caution when you see an open floor plan the house was not built do you have an open floor plan what is holding up the upstairs most Realtors don't care they're in it for the money the most important things in a house is behind the Walls and there's no way a realtor or yourself can tell how it was reconstructed

I agree, somewhat. If you're considering a home built in or before, say thr 70's, and it's obviously been updated as the kitchen opens into the family/living room area, then it's a pretty sure bet that walls have been removed. Be sure to check out my newest video on the 9 Signs of a Bad House Flip. There are clues, so be aware. Your realtor should practice 'due diligence' and be there to help you navigate through the process.

I don't know if my sight, sense of smell, or taste had abandoned me on the days that I went to visit this house, but I bought a flipped house with very shotty work. My realtor and inspector must have been working together. Baseboards were not attached to the walls. I had to buy a hot water tank and still don't have hot water. Buyer's remorse.

I hope you've gotten your hot water situation taken care of. So sorry you've experienced such a nightmare. Owning a new home should be a reason to celebrate!

@@asmith8603 Interesting question. He is working for the buyer. The buyer is the one who hires the inspection company. Since most buyers don't know inspectors, the agent often recommends someone they know will do a great job. I'm guessing you had a bad experience?

@@asmith8603 I'm so sorry that has happened to you! That should not have happened. I always tell my sellers that it's an inspector's job to find everything that's 'wrong" with a home - even the little things. I guess it's just like everything else - there is good and bad.

I don't agree with having to pay the county just so they can make money. I'm good on making sure somebody used a permit. I don't think we should be paying a fee for something that can be covered by our already given taxes

I like the idea of needing permits and having the work inspected. I'm not exactly sure who makes the decisions about the cost of the permits (I'm guessing it's each locality, cities planning department or mayor) so the fees may vary.

Agree! That should be a service provided by the property taxes paid on said property! Permits should be about safety-NOT profit!!

@@Shotleythinktank I sort of agree...so, get this...many years ago, I built a deck in my backyard. I got a notice that I hadn't paid for a permit (didn't know I needed one for a deck!) Anyway, when I called the City, I ask how they even knew I was building a deck and...get this...they have a full time person who drives around the city (and there are over 100,000 residents). He/she checks to see if there are any building materials around the home (lumber in the driveway) and then checks to see if a permit was drawn. I paid the $50 for the permit and continued building. But talk about use of taxpayer $$. I've always wondered if the permit $$ garnered by the drive-by paid for the person driving by? Net loss or net profit??
