Get an inspection. Do not skimp on it. If a buyer does not accept your offer based on this fact then WALK!
-
Y'all missed the fact she said that the house is in Texas and it is two years old. Texas has state law requiring warranty for major structural components including foundation for 10 years. Lawyer up sweetheart, get your money back from the builder.
-
“I’m about to bust somebody in the chops.” Sounds like my dad lol.
-
It sounds like she bought a disaster house. They obviously did not get a proper inspection when they bought it. She will never follow his advice, even though she called in.
-
Saying the whole HVAC system needs replacement in less than 10 years is suspicious. Everything was basically still new. That's like saying, my car didn't start this morning, so I guess I need a new car.
-
A 2 year old home should have a foundation warranty. This makes no sense.
-
Buy a home they said. It will be a dream they said. Don't rent they said. Yep....
-
always love when Dave tells it like it is to people who are in denial and still won’t follow his advice even though they somehow were able to take the time to call in to the show. You can hear it in her voice she does not want to do anything or believe anything that Dave is telling her. I used to feel sorry for people like that. Key take away, I used to.
-
Confused how a home inspection wouldn't have caught all of this? Sounds like they didn't get one or they did and didn't care to look through the packet
-
Some people want everything perfect all the time. Houses are eternal projects. No way they needed that level of HVAC repair. They don’t understand mechanical systems and when you buy a house you got to study up on how it all works.
-
Why do people call in and beat around the bush? You don't want help, you just want to hear your own voice. That was brutal to listen to.

For me, I believe retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My wife and I both spent same number of years in the civil service, he invested through a wealth manager and myself through the 401k. We both still earning after our retirement.
-
Just fix the plumbing with a different company (not associated with the foundation company) and then just save money for the next repair. Sounds like they've already fixed most of the major issues. They should be good for another 10 years, when their roof fails from hail storms.
-
Can yall do a show about the reality of expenses of buying a home or just other things that new buyers never think about? Thank you in advance
-
Reading the comments, I agree that she may have opted out and/or didn't do a throughout inspection because she thought, "the house is only two years old." PLUS i don't think she had an emergency fund and bought too big of a house trying to keep up with the Johnson's.
-
Paid double for the HVAC job.
-
Papa Dave to the rescue again. I learn so much from listening to this channel.
-
Hearing these men call themselves drama queens is so heartwarming. Haha! Self-aware kings! Haha
-
In Texas the copper pipes run through the foundation slab. If the pipes slowly leak water that will ruin the newly repaired foundation. That is why the contractor wants a no leak certificate before giving a guarantee. This issue is that the original foundation issue could have caused pipe leaks and also, the repaired can cause leaks because the foundation shifted. The problem isn't the request if a plumbing inspection but the relationship between the two contractors.

Feel bad for this lady, she seems to be the kind of person that can be easily be taken advantage of.
