Hi Reuban, ty for saying you're buying a used house. That was the realest thing you can say about an older house. I have my mine Monday. I think my guy will be fair. Thanks again.
@@bannabozo8033 sameee 😂🤣 butttt ours came back 31 pages of what’s wrong lol. 31 PAGESSSSS! Insane, we are telling the sellers everything that was wrong so they can decline fixing it and we can get out of the contract 😂😂😂 so I’m grateful spending that money rather than getting the house and doing the repairs
We just had our home inspection on a house we were buying and sadly we will be walking away. The roof needs replacing (which we were ok with). The radiator heater in the bathroom leaked (no big deal we wanted to take them out anyway). But wait it gets worse. The attic has asbestos insulation with active tub wiring running through it. All of the plumbing is galvanized pipes with an asbestos rap. The crawl space was so small our inspection couldn't get to half of the house. Under the half he couldn't access there was no vapor barrier and there was electrical wires laying on the ground due to not being able to get in and staple them up. Lastly and the worst of all someone cut the floor jostle under the bathtub to install the drain.
Thank you so much for this video. We're extremely lucky, we're buying the house we live in from our landlord so a lot of the market part of the sale are skipped, so we're right at the pre approval and moving onto comps and inspections, we know most of what's problematic with the home but we know there's a lot we're unaware of, it's had a LOT of tenants over the decades.
I with my family(mom) will buy a home soon. I went to forums and whatnot, but i remember someone saying there are 2 types of inspectors. The kind that does the inspections and leaves you a lot of paperwork with what is wrong and the one that takes you along and explains everything to you.
A good inspector does both! Make sure to look up multiple inspector companies/ reviews. Also if you have a good realtor they should be able to recommend inspectors
Thank you so much. May I ask if you have any recommendations for homes that are being built anew, for example I heard you mention about roof and sewer, is that my top priority for a new home or something else that mustn’t be amiss. Thank you again.
Hi I live in Minnesota too so I'm buying a house and it doesn't have a storm door so is it required a storm door in a house inspection??? Please help! Thanks
I live in Missouri, and our suburbs have so much stucco that we call it Stuccoland. I thought stucco was for arid climates. I'm glad you recommend examining it.
You don't have to purchase a home inspection to back out if a deal where I live. As long as you are within your inspection period, you can back out for any reason. Like he said, you don't have to give a reason. It's your due diligence time and you can change your mind for any reason.
Excellent video, very helpful information. I feel much more prepared to enter the home buying process now thanks to this info. Looking forward to checking out more info in your other videos as well. Thanks!
Then why my home inspector gives the report and reach out to my Realator before reaching me out. I ask him a question, and he reached out to my Realator to give the answer.. that’s surprising and strange in bad ways
Thanks for the info man but you should make the video with better quality! I know its four years old but a ton of people click on newest videos. Also look to see how well the video quality is :). In the end its all up to you.
You could say to the old man selling his house at basement bargain prices as he is moving into a assisted living home to, "Well, that septic is 18 years old and nearing the end of its useful life, so if you would take fifteen grand off the price, we will go ahead with the purchase." 95% of people don't know their backsides form their elbows and one old widower using the septic designed for six people has 30+ years left to live.
You have to beware of home inspectors these guys take a 2-week course anyone can call themselves a home inspector I've been around many some with bad attitudes that will go in and make a brand new house sound like it's ready to fall down within a week they say it's the unbiased truth but certain ones will try to control a real estate deal and put themselves in a position that they should not be in again a 2-week course what a joke
this is extremely enlightening. I'm sure the regulations vary a bit in California but I am sure ultimately we are looking for many of the same things. I am trying to buy a triplex that I intend to manage myself so I know the home inspection is going to be one of the most critical investments I make before purchase.
@@SSNUTHIN I'm excited for u! I'm from California as well. I've been listening to Bigger Pockets (a very good you tube channel if u haven't looked them up) since late last year. I'm still learning to analyze a property among other things. You will do great. This is the beginning of an exciting adventure to financial freedom. May the force be with u!
Some of these home buyers in the comments are truly the nail on the coffin. Asking why you’d pay a man to insure the house is up to date, and then complaining that you spent the money or found out it isn’t up to date is truly funny. Hence why you guys don’t make a profit off your asset. Your a bunch of asset bums

Dude, this video was extremely helpful in both information and calming my nerves a bit lol. Appreciate you!
Thank you so much. As a Mom, going thru divorce tryn to sell my house that has been neglected, thisvwas so so helpful. Thank you
Good stuff. I like how Reuben understands that anything can be fixed.
A 300 dollar inspection fee sure is cheaper than a house that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. Seems a lot cheaper to me.
I just paid 530

Thanks so much for this video! I just got my offer on a home accepted yesterday and now I'm trying to book an inspection
Thank you for making this video. It will be a great help to us now as we are about to make an offer on our first home.

Thank you sir. I'm an inspector and i'll use some of your ideas in my presentations. Very professional.
FTB here, getting an inspection in 2 days! Thanks for this video.
Thank you for the clear cut informative video. This answered every question I had.
Thanks, this video contains all helpful information for the first time buyer like me.
Excellent video and recommendations.

Rubin, what shoes/tools do you recommend for a home inspector to climb a roof?
Top notch info, thanks for the helpful video :)

Are you an inspector in Missouri? I am currently in the process of buying a home in North County and I am looking for a good inspector.

What about when the sellers list the home as pre-inspected? Even if they distribute the full report, doesn’t that still run the risk of being biased?
Yes but as a buyer you have the right to get your own home inspection
Always always always get your own inspection done, and stand firm on that.
Then why my home inspector gives the report and reach out to my Realator before reaching me out. I ask him a question, and he reached out to my Realator to give the answer.. that’s surprising and strange in bad ways
Great video, thank you.
Home inspections for any real estate transacion.
Awesome video thanks so much !
So yes the inspection cost for just inspection is 300 but what about radon and pest control etc
Great video!!
So I have 2k cash. I don't know where to start I seen ati program should start there and call around to work for a company?
It’s like 300 bucks for a home inspection dawg
Excellent job!
Great information! Thanks!
This inspection business helps both buyers and sellers to avoid regret.. 😉
Great Video! Thanks for the great info :)
What Sewer camera was that? It looks nice.

We have to pay before or after home inspection?
After the inspection is finished, once paid then the inspector will finalize his/her report and send it too you.
Was that sewer inspection guy in his socks? Lol
In Buffalo, NY, a home inspection is $575 in 2024.
Thank you
Thank you so much this has been incredibly helpful
Is having water barrels in your house attached to gutter a problem if you're selling
Theres alot of on hand money involved
Y is the sewer guy has no gloves and putting a non protected camera hose into the poop pipe 🤢
My real estate agent, is the owner of the house.
