Importance of a Septic Inspection When Purchasing a New Home
February 3, 2014
If you are like most people who are buying a home in Everett, you want to be able to move right in with no upfront maintenance, headaches, or significant costs required. After all, you want to be able to enjoy your new home, not having to worry about contacting different contractors to compare prices and set up appointments. This is one of the key reasons why it is important to have a septic inspection completed before you sign on the dotted line for any new home.
Many mortgage loan officers will require that a septic inspection be completed on a new home before the funds are released prior to completing the purchase. Even if yours does not, however, you should have an inspection performed for your own peace of mind to ensure that your system is working properly. It is important to know the condition of your septic system before you buy the home to avoid larger costs and potential issues unexpectedly.
If the septic system in the home is failing, or if it simply needs to be pumped, you can negotiate with the seller to have those costs taken into account before you complete the purchase.
