Episode Synopsis

🎙️EPISODE TWENTY-ONE
When you buy a house, you want to make sure that everything works properly and that there aren't any major defects or issues. At the same time, your agent will want to avoid any surprises during the inspection process. After all, marketing a property with major problems could have an adverse impact on their commission. If a buyer discovers hidden defects after they have moved in and after they have signed their mortgage then they may decide to cancel their mortgage and ask for their deposit back. A good and secured disclosure form would help you avoid these issues altogether.
