As many of you know, my lease for the apartment that I have lived in since I moved out of my parent’s house is coming to a close. With no opportunity to renew, I have been searching for a new house to live in. Originally I thought that I would just rent another apartment, but the thought of owning my own place really called out to me.
So, I have been looking at houses. It is a perfect time to buy as the housing prices are very favorable in the area and I have looked at more than two dozen of them in person. I have a few items on my wish list, and though time is running out on my lease, I want to make sure that I don’t compromise on what I want.
There is one home that I am thinking of putting an offer on, but I wanted to make sure that there were no mold issues. One of the things that the realtor had mentioned was that the basement flooded a couple of years ago, so I am having a mold inspection done before I place an offer. I have permission from the home owner, so if there is no mold, this will be my new home.
I have my fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly – I’ll know for sure in about a week.
