This is a........ MYTH!

The Truth: No matter how new or nice a house appears, there could always be potential problems lurking, and you don’t want to be stuck with them once the keys are in your hands. A home inspection can reveal issues that need to be addressed, and rather than your problem as a new homeowner, you can request that the issues be fixed before you take possession or the purchase price be lowered to reflect the cost of the fixes. Without an inspection, you’ll have no idea what kind of problems (and expenses) are waiting for you in the future.

Farm-fresh colors, classic dark hardware and a wraparound porch contribute to this traditional look

This is a........ MYTH!

The Truth: This is risky in today’s competitive market. If you make a lowball offer and bank on receiving a counteroffer, you may be waiting a very long time! You may never get another chance, especially if multiple offers on the house are almost at or above the asking price. Besides, offering a low price can insult and disrespect the seller, which isn’t always the best way to start a pleasant transaction.
