Hiring a Home Inspector

Friday, December 16th, 2011

What is the most important thing to do after you sign a contact for a home for sale?  Many people think it is:

  • measure the rooms for furniture
  • go the paint store and decide on new colors
  • check with the bank on your loan approval
  • take off to Tahiti to celebrate

No.  Hire the best home inspector you can and get that most important inspection done within the allowed contracted time frame, usually ten days after signing.  This is the most important thing you need to do because if there is something wrong with the home and you decide you cannot live with it, you only have ten days to make that point known to the selling agent.

Buying a home is a serious commitment; you will pour tons of money into this house over the life of the loan.  You may raise a family there and spend a good portion of your life in this home.  You want to make sure you know everything about the home before actually taking the keys.

What’s the best way to find a good home inspector?  First I would ask your real estate agent for a recommendation.  Then I would ask friends and family if they have used any home inspectors in the past that they were very pleased with.  Once you have a few names, check them against the Better Business Bureau, google their name to find their business page, and read the reviews.  Most times, what you pay for a home inspection is the same or similar across the board, so make sure you are getting what you pay for.  Don’t be afraid to ask to speak to previous customers.  Any reputable home inspector will supply real people to talk to.

When your home inspector inspects the house, make sure you and your real estate agent are present.  Stay out of his way but feel free to ask questions and get answers at the appropriate time.  A good home inspector will take his time and inspect everything and provide a report of his findings within a few days of the inspection.

If deficiencies are found, the next steps are up to you and your real estate agent but if you hired a qualified home inspector you will have all the information you need to move forward.

Low Mortgage Rates are Good News for Homebuyers

Friday, June 18th, 2010

Bob Lipply who brokers Lansbrook homes is of the opinion that the trend of low prices and financing choices on homes will maintain, keeping the environment advantageous for new buyers. A large recovery in the housing market that took place several weeks past was later credited to consumers securing the homebuyer tax credit before the April 30th deadline. A 13-year low soon followed the “recovery.” Freddie Mac chief economist Frank Nothaft and other analysts are of the belief that this is a temporary decline, acknowledging that growth for the first three months of the year fell short of expectations. However the housing market has shown signs of being on the right path to recovery; it will be a slow one with inflation being relatively stable.

New numbers from Freddie Mac illustrate that mortgage rates are holding at record lows in the midst of an unsteady U.S. bond market, with 30-year fixed mortgages averaging 4.79 percent for the week ending June 3, up 0.01 percentage points from the prior week but half a point lower than last year. This is near the all-time low of 4.71 points reached last December, corroborating that 30-year rates have remained largely unchanged. Likewise, 15-year fixed-rate mortgages have shown new record lows reaching 4.20 percent, which is considerably lower than the 4.79 percent average of the previous year. Since 1971 and since 1991, Freddie Mac has been tracking 30-year and 15-year mortgage rates.

There’s more than just Fujikura Golf Shafts though.  We have a wide range of golf shafts varying from aldila to matrix.  We’ve even got harrison golf shafts.  Seriously though, matrix golf shafts are probably some of the best shafts out on the market today.  They basically slave over every single shaft until they’re completed to perfect without any imperfections or irregularities.  It takes them over a week for each individual shaft to be completed… If I was in the market for a golf shaft, that’s who I’d want making my golf shafts.
