Using the Information

You now have a better idea of the condition your property. The Inspectors findings may have been worse than imagined; problems you were unaware of take on a life of their own, and you are unsure what your next move is. Don't worry!

1) Make a list of the problems that you can address and repair without a lot of time or effort.

2) Look at the issues that will need a professional to repair and start getting quotes for the work.

3) Start looking at your budget and if you need to prioritize, look at issues that could cause serious damage or negatively affect your home if left unattended. These repairs should be addressed as soon as possible.

Bottom Line...
If the problems are of a serious nature and have the potential to affect the habitability or the safety of your home, they need to be remedied as soon as possible. When repairs are not made in a timely manner, the structure can be affected and the cost of the repair becomes exponentially more expensive.

... it is a lot less costly to pay for preventative maintenance than it is to pay for a major repairs.
