Inspection Results

First, sorry if house talk is getting old, its just whats going on in my life right now, lol.

Now on to the post. I got the inspection results today. For the most part everything came back fine. Foundation is solid, roof doesnt leak, windows are good, all the big things are fine. BUT the dishwasher makes a funny noise when run, the refrigerator didnt work at all, and the microwave that was listed as coming with the property was marked as not present. The kitchen sink had little to no water pressure, there is a small leak at the main water shut off, and a few cracks/nails popping up on the roof, which was also marked as "normal wear & tear."

Its possible that the microwave, which was bolted onto the underneath of a cabinet but listed as "built in" didnt count for the inspection since it really wasnt built in. It seems a bit sketchy to me but what do I know? Lol.

Really all I am worried about is the kitchen stuff. Mainly the water pressure and the fridge. We must have those two. I am waiting for a call from the Realtor but for the most part I think we are just going to ask for the water pressure to be looked into and maybe some money for the appliances. We were going to replace them in a year or so anyway to something less dated looking so really best case is that the water gets fixed and we get cash for new appliances. With that in mind if the seller wants to fix them I guess there isnt much we can do other then to start saving now for new ones, just in case.

At least the foundation is ok. We are willing to deal with the minor things like the roofing nails and normal wear but its good to know that the big things are fine.
