Dave saved us a potentially a 50K at least

My wife and i had thought that we found our dream home , a house , newly built , was brand new , in a good location. We were even contemplating putting in a subject free offer because of the crazy real estate market. Taking our realtor's advice, we put in an offer with inspection only ,but an over asking offer which the seller accepted. Dave which we have used previously 2 yrs ago , did our inspection. In a couple of hours , Dave has already found 42 deficiencies, including 2 major ones , by the last hour it was 87 items and 3 major deficiencies that would have cost us at least 50k to fixed up. We went back to the seller and to our surprised, he would not fixed all the item but told our realtor that to list out all deficiencies and they'll decide which ones to fixed. We cant believed our ears and decide we will walk away from the home. We have learnt never to Judge a home by its age. At the time of this review, we have found another house and Dave of course did the inspection with minor deficiencies . Dave will be doing the walk through for us tomorrow to make sure all minor defects have been rectified.

Approximate cost of services:
$550.00
