The Property For Sale In France Did Not Pass Inspection
Real Estate December 15th, 2009The property for sale in France that I was supposed to buy has not passed the inspection. I made sure to have them do a complete inspection of the entire property so that I did not have any surprises when I move in. I guess that the property for sale in France has termites and it is going to cost at least two thousand dollars to fix the damage they have caused and to fumigate them.
This happened to me with a Spanish property that I bought five years ago. It had some termite damage but it did not cost as much to fix and I paid for it myself. I know that I cannot afford to pay the two thousand dollars that they are estimating it to cost.
If the sellers decide that they want to pay for it, then I will go ahead and purchase the home granted that after the work is completed on it, it passes another inspection. I was really looking forward to owning not only the Spanish property to vacation at, but also the French property as well.
I may have to start my search for a property for sale in France all over again until I find a house that I like, one that I can afford, and one that can pass any inspection with flying colors.
