We bought a house

Congrats on buying your new home!! Its really nice.

Well... we aren't buying this home lol

We found out some stuff... the septic system is not in good shape and needs to be replaced with a holding tank which needs to be serviced every three months.... we don't really want to be saddled with that....

And there is some termite damage.... the house was since sprayed for termites but it is unknown at this time whether there was any damage to the framing...

So we decided to back off of this one. We didn't even get the other inspections done yet... the first two inspections showed trouble... and that is enough for us.

it was a very pretty home but could have lead to problems we didnt' want to deal with.

So our home search continues lol

Sorry it didn't work out but I am sure another great home is waiting just for you.

It's good to know those kinds of things before purchasing. Another one will come along. They keep saying that it's a "buyers' market".

Yes I believe the buyers have the power right now so don't settle.

Good thing you found this out before you bought! Keep looking. It is a buyer's market out there. I'm sure there is a nice house with acres of counterspace in the kitchen out there for you. :)

LOL... .well I guess the sellers are offering to pay for the load test to find out for SURE what would need to be done with the septic system... if we can't put in a drainage field (at their expense) then we are walking away.

It's nice to be in this position... it is a buyers market and we don't have a deadline for when we NEED to be out of this house... we can stay here as long as we need to.

:D

Nah, just run while you can.
