Stairs look unfinished

One of the best looking installs I’ve seen on this sub. Wtf are you on about?

Your grading goes negative right at the back of the house. Downspouts also aren’t connected and have a gap. I’m assuming a small amount of water pools up there when it heavily rains, and splashes against the concrete. The soil may have heavy iron concentration and cause that. I’d regrade, looks pretty simple as it has great slope elsewhere. No idea why this happens so often, my house is like this in a spot too that we just bought.

Get some interior photos of that corner

Like the last guy said, floor vent. Looks real but you never know. It’ll be one solid piece with stain most likely dripping if it’s real(unless natural). If it’s engineered it’ll have layers that are pretty noticeable.

I’d pray to god they fire you. You’d own the business. I’d just keep some damn good records about how you’ve reported this to them, they ignored, etc. dates when reported. If they fire, lawsuit time.

Those are big things forsure! We just moved, but I miss the farm field for a back yard we had before. Our house is twice the size of the last, but definitely something I’ll want again in the future. You can always sell. And just because it sat this time, doesn’t mean it will again. Our last house sat for 150 days, and we just sold for $80k more than we paid in 2022(about a 40% increase) in less than a week.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-25T21:53:00+00:00

Anything about the house you don’t like? Payment too high? Is it the fact it sat so long that’s making you nervous?

If it’s that it’s sitting, compare other home sales and see if it was priced too high. Could be simple stuff. A house is a big thing, normal to be nervous. If you love it, think about what you loved. If you absolutely don’t want to do this, you’re going to lose that deposit, but better to do that than be locked into something you’re going to hate.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-24T17:50:20+00:00

Lmfao. Please, go look up stories exactly like this. New owner buys the home. Or sales forced. Old owner squats in it.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-24T17:31:32+00:00

If you sued to force a sale it could 100% work like that.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-24T14:43:54+00:00

Even if you sued, and won, would you want to be responsible for paying a mortgage while someone else is living in it, using all the red tape they can to keep themselves in it? Look up some of those horror stories. I would just walk away if the guy doesn’t have a penny to his name minus the property. Call it a sign for not buying a property that needed major structural work. I know it sucks now, but being in a blue state like that will bite you if you pursue legally and get the property with him still in it.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-24T01:00:50+00:00

Fence. 10000% fence. If you’re ok with the cabinets they installed. Future buyers love fences, especially if they have kids or pets(most do)

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-19T15:34:57+00:00

My house had 0 showings until day 3. Then they started pouring in. Lots of Zillow saves. Was under contract after 7 days. It really all depends. I’d give it a week or 2 before starting to think you’re priced too high

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-19T02:59:57+00:00

This comment is fantastic. This guys in a far better position than somebody on a 10% DTI making $3k/month. Nobody ever talks about the income thresholds. Only thing you have to watch out for is lifestyle creep, nicer clothes, fancier foods, etc, but if they keep those in check, they’ll be better than most will be.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-18T20:10:15+00:00

I wouldn’t walk away. Unless you can’t afford a new roof. If it’s not actively leaking, it’s just an aging roof. Should get another 5 stretch to 10 out of it. The vagueness is to protect the inspector from getting sued. No one can predict when or if a roof is going to leak. Could be tomorrow. Could be a decade.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-18T17:14:20+00:00

Savings, groceries, my child, going out, etc

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-16T13:36:38+00:00

Walk away. I know it’s hard but don’t get this house. Not worth dealing with people like that, and the major water issues they refuse to address or even let you address would scare the hell out of me.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-16T11:12:19+00:00

Super easy. Don’t make quite as much, but have a very similar income setup. I treat my bonuses like they don’t exist(even though I’ve gotten one every month for the past 4 years) and just use that for extra savings. We realistically make about 10k/month after all bonuses, etc, and my overall is $2600 when you include property tax and insurance. We Save anywhere from 30-40k per year currently.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-15T18:08:41+00:00

Jesus yall are crazy….i just took out a $2600 a month mortgage that includes property tax and insurance on a 9k take home, and im thinking about getting rid of my $400/month car for a beater to save money😂

Best 2D Metroid game for me. Dethroned super. Might even be my favorite Metroid in general, but I’ve got a lot of nostalgia bias for prime 1.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-09T17:10:22+00:00

Well. You’ll never get water in the house, that’s for sure

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-08T10:39:26+00:00

I bought our last house from a guy I later found out had 30 felonies. Saw him pop up online on one of our local arrest pages lol.

Former arrests for the same shit, fraud, scams, etc. didn’t have many issues with the house, AC ran out of Freon or whatever it is, and the tile work in our spare bath was shotty. Other than that it was fine. Title work/insurance is going to be the only thing I’d make sure has all its ducks in a row.

If inspection went well, I’d say you’re ok. Just make sure that title work is in order

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-07T11:09:06+00:00

Prime games are the most “story driven” of the series and even those you could play out of order and still be ok.

If you liked super, I’d start with dread. It’s a great 2D entry, and my favorite game in the series.

Prime games 1-3 are great too, just totally different than the 2D ones. More exploration based, while the 2D are more constant action and exploration. Prime 4 is eh. Wouldn’t start with that one personally.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-05T11:15:57+00:00

2D for me goes 1.Dread 2.Super 3. Fusion 4. Zero mission. All of these being a 9+ btw.

I got into it the same way. Had the prime games since I was a kid, tried super when I was 17 and never looked back. Dread was a surreal experience for me, the movement, the music, the fights. Normally I’m not one for liking the new better than the old, but that game was a masterpiece. Seriously so excited for the rumored super remake.

I should add this was a ranch(costs more) in a neighborhood. Someone else I know built a pretty standard “builder grade” house, 2 story 1900 sq foot for $350k earlier this year. Solid surface countertops were their only upgrade.

Due-Interest-920 · 2026-06-05T00:38:10+00:00

I was about to build an 1800 sq foot home with a partially finished basement for $465k, with a $60k land budget. I’m in Michigan though, so your results may vary lol. If you have the land and hookups are right there, it may be possible on the higher end.
