このコンテンツについて
In this episode of Illusions of Real Estate, Audrey Murphy breaks down one of the most misunderstood (and feared) parts of buying and selling a home—the inspection process.
From common findings like hairline cracks or missing GFCIs to serious red flags like mold, foundation shifts, or termite damage, Audrey walks you through what really matters in a report—and what’s just typical wear and tear.
Plus, hear a real-life story where seller-provided inspections missed major issues, and how a second inspection saved her buyers from a financial disaster.
You’ll also learn:
- The difference between normal aging and true deal-breakers
- When to bring in specialty inspections (like mold, foundation, septic, or well)
- Why a $580 inspection might save you thousands in repairs later
- And the limits of what buyers can (and can’t) do during the inspection period
🛑 Bonus Tip: If an inspector finds missing smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, or missing water heater straps – these are not negotiable repairs - they are government required safety features.
Whether you’re a buyer, seller, or agent, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you avoid costly surprises and make informed, confident decisions.
