Home Inspections...So Far, So Good

Yes. So far, no major issues with the home inspections on either our house or our new house. Our new house is great. Only a minor thing -- needs a new electrical outlet upstairs in a bathroom -- and a carbon monoxide detector needs to be hung up downstairs. Otherwise, everything looks great. The A/C is pretty old, but we have a home warranty that we get for a year from the sellers that will cover it if it poops out. Also, we can continue the warranty at a fairly manageable cost if the A/C doesn't kick the bucket within the first year.

As far as our current house goes, I think things look okay. Jean was there for a few minutes while the inspector was there today and he only pointed out one thing to her. Apparently, the pipe that runs from the A/C to the drain was missing. An easy fix, I've been told by Dad. I told Nick, and he said, "You mean that pipe that Danny and I broke while putting in the new water heater?" Oh yeah! That one! I guess that could have been fixed a while ago, huh? Hey, if that's the main problem, we'll be good! We also need to hang up our carbon monoxide detector. We have one, it's just not up on the wall. The inspector has to come back later to inspect outside because it's so rainy today, but I'm crossing my fingers that everything looks okay!

We're getting closer...
