Home Inspection for Your Home Purchase!
I hope everyone is having a great week! This post is mostly for home buyers or people who might be planning on purchasing a home going into 2018! Once you have found the home you want to purchase and both the buyer and seller have agreed to the terms, your Realtor should give you the opportunity for a home inspection to be completed.
I typically always recommend for my buyers to have a home inspection completed. This will allow them to evaluate the home inspection report and make sure the condition of the home is satisfactory to them. Shouldn’t you as a buyer have questions for the home inspector? For future home buyers, have you thought of a list of questions to ask your home inspector? Below are a few questions that you may find helpful.
2.) How long have you been a licensed inspector?
3.) Do you belong to the Better Business Bureau or any other organizations?
5.) If repairs are needed, do you charge a re-inspection fee?
7.) How much do you charge for the home inspection? Are there any other fees I should be expecting?

Would you Live in a Haunted House?!?
I hope everyone is having a great week. With Halloween right around the corner I figured it would be a great time to talk about haunted houses. Would you ever consider living in a haunted house? The excitement of hearing footsteps when no one is in site? Or how about sleeping in a room where someone might have been murdered or taken from there home?
A recent survey of 1,000 people found that a little over 30% of people said they would consider living in a haunted house, 25% said maybe, while 42% of people said no way. What do you think? Would you consider the excitement of living in a haunted house?
I hope everyone is enjoying the excitement and cooler temperatures that comes with October and Halloween!
Who all loves the season of fall? The crisp air, cooler temperatures, bonfires, time spent with family. There is nothing better! I know for me fall is my favorite time of year and especially here in Marion County. There are so many out door activities for you and your family or friends to take part in. From Oktoberfest, The Art Walk to The Downtown Square there is always something fun to do!
Below are a few links to some of my favorite fall events!
I hope everyone is having a great start to the fall season!
