We would like to thank you Kyle. We are trying to buy our first home and we are disabled and you have made learning about the process very understandable for us. Keep up the good work. Thank you again
Thanks so much! I got my first negative comment before you commented so I'm grateful for your kind words! Congrats on being ready to purchase in the summer, you're going to benefit greatly from your preparation.

Thank you so much for this video! It's been really tough feeling like I don't even know what information I'm missing much less where to find it. This video has been immensely helpful!!

I am scheduled to meet with a home inspector tomorrow it's 2.5 hours away from where we live now. Being a first-time home buyer I am researching as much as possible. The home was built in 1996 and sits on 3 ac. It looks well-maintained. Septic, Pest, and appraisal inspections will follow. It's in a rural area in California with a population of approx. 1,275 Is there anything else I should have inspected? Does anyone know? Thank you for a very informative video. Angel from The Bay
Good evening Kyle. Has much changed if any with the Inspection Checklist? I'm looking to purchase by the time my lease is up in April 2025 and I'm trying to learn as much as possible since this will be my first home.
PLEASE people! Research and hire your own home inspector. Don't get the one recommended by your realtor unless you have worked with him before and really trust him.

I followed the tips, I really appreciate the “keeping the receipts” for documentation. My realtor said the owners got offended:/ well we are purchasing a home . Again that is for the tips. You and Javier Vidania All the way From the evergreen state.
Great video. My condo inspection is this Wednesday. In their email they said they charge extra for mold and air quality testing. I would have thought that was standard. Should I pay to add this?
Can you explain having inspections done with FHA vs Conventional? I've heard with conventional loans, sellers aren't on the hook to get everything fixed. My wife and I are first-time home buyers and (without getting into specifics) the home we are interested in requires a lot of repairs (roof, deck, windows, pool, AC?, etc) (pre-inspection) but the seller will only entertain conventional buyers. Any options or thoughts? Thanks!
Home inspectors are not liable for missed items, so to me, they are a waste of money. Get your sewer line scoped with a camera, I've payed $160 . Pay attention to all, all water sources, from the plumbing, the sky and the ground, look for damage or repairs. Have walls been removed ? Were they load bearing one's and if you don't know that, then you shouldn't be doing an inspection . Hinges, knobs slides, anything that moves. Drafts, smells, and sounds. Put a radio on and see how far sound travels outside and in.
Never get a home inspector recommendation from the Realtor. The agent is going to recommend an inspector who will not kill the deal by being a tough inspector.
Valid opinion! There are definitely shady real estate agents out there who might do that. My hope is that people vet their real estate agent enough up-front so they won't run into an issue like that.
@@WinTheHouseYouLove Exactly. Realtors should recommend a home inspector that does a thorough job, in order to protect their buyers. As an inspector, I depend on realtor recommendations in order to compete with shady inspectors that purchase fake Google reviews.
My inspector was only in the house for 45 mins and only gave me 14 page report. The house is only 5 years old and he only found roof problems. Maybe that's why the inspection was so short. 🤷🏻
Don't rule one of these out for new construction either: Especially given the current seller's market and how fast different companies are building these days.
Hey Maril! Thanks for watching and giving us a thumbs up! We really appreciate it. If you're ever ready to start on a pre-qualification, you can head over to www.winthehouseyoulove.com/lender. Let me know if you have any questions or need any assistance. Happy house hunting!
Our agent has been fantastic. unfortunately, she got the wuhan flu and can't be there with me today for the inspection, so she's sending another agent. Sucks, but its reality. I know a couple of the issues already, but in this market, getting anything replaced or repaired is tough. Barring something major, we'll probably just deal with it.
@WinTheHouseYouLove I think most people would agree there are more agents just concerned about their commission than their clients best interests. Out of 8 l have worked with, l might use 1 or possibly 2 again. That's a bad ratio. Self serving, lazy, over paid industry for the most part. With a small number of good agents mixed in. The NAR settlement was for good reason. l hope it changes the industry for the better..

Amazing! Please do more of these !!
Sure! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the tips, Mr. Fassbender!
I don't understand why people think a home build 40 or 70 year has to be perfect that never happens only on dreams
Haha sometimes expectations need to be corrected with some people
Good evening Kyle. Has much changed if any with the Inspection Checklist? I'm looking to purchase by the time my lease is up in April 2025 and I'm trying to learn as much as possible since this will be my first home.
This still applies :)

Great thumbs up
Thank you! Cheers!
Hey! So glad I found your channel. If I have already sign contract for a new build can I still do an inspection? My agent is connected with builder
Hi! It depends on your agreement. But I suggest that you don't skip inspections, it's important even for new builds. Best of luck!
These are some great tips!
Thank you so much for watching!! :)
Thank you 👍🏽
You’re welcome 😊
Do you happen to know a 'good home inspection' company or an individual in the east coast area?
You need to make an inspection guide for sellers next!

Not true, if your realtor does that they are a bad realtor. I'd rather keep looking for a better house then have you buy a lemon.
@@topgunpressurecleaning8930 still, I think it is better to avoid the Realtor's preferred vendors.
My inspector was only in the house for 45 mins and only gave me 14 page report. The house is only 5 years old and he only found roof problems. Maybe that's why the inspection was so short. 🤷🏻
Could be. :) Thanks for watching!

Don't rule one of these out for new construction either: Especially given the current seller's market and how fast different companies are building these days.
Never ever. :) Thanks for watching!
Excellent advice! I agree with some other commenters that it's better to have an independent inspector.
Thanks!
I think having an independent inspector is a great idea :)
But who arranges the inspection? Doesn’t the realtor?
@@fabfoz The buyer or realtor can book it. I recommend the buyer research a good inspector and book it on their own.
3:14, 3-4 hours inspection? Really? Will even the most thorough inspector even need that much time for an ordinary-size house?
Somewhere around there. You want the inspector to be thorough!

They are :)
The real estate agent gets a commission from the seller. Don't trust the agent for a referral.

Lots of good agents. Sorry you've not had that experience.
