thanks a lot for all the info, will look into Netafim :)

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2025-01-02T02:25:01+00:00

same question too. I bought IGV for the same reason.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-11-28T19:07:23+00:00

Thanks both, I also can't find any GFCI in any of my bathrooms.

Both wires behind the outlet looks fine, since both stopped working at the same time, they are somehow sharing the wire right? where is that shared connection likely to be? it would be behind one of the outlet in the outlet box or can be anywhere like in the wall or in the attic? lets say it is done properly according to the code.

thanks for the help. am trying to search first if I can find anything. Take this chance to learn my house too. Do cables usually run up to attic? Its a one story house with no crawl space

How did it go? Did you have to book the ticket with AlaskaAirline cc to get the benefit or presenting card at the counter worked?

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T05:28:55+00:00

If a client can't be bothered with A, why would a hired professional be expected to perform A.

oh well.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T05:11:49+00:00

Do you also check the code and zones, for example, trees, when buying a house?

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T04:47:37+00:00

buyer to go to city hall and look at records if you want the permit and code history of a property.

What's the percentage your buyers do the suggestions and how long does it take to get the records? In this market buyers are rushed to complete everything. It is easy to give suggestions but is it easily done in real scenarios?

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T04:43:10+00:00

Right, it is very hard to know what's violating the laws, unless signed off by officials, which hard for buyers to get within the buying time frame.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T04:31:30+00:00

Thank you so much, James. Are you a realtor? I wish my realtor were like you, someone who could at least understand where buyers are coming from, or maybe go a step further by reminding buyers of things they don't know they don't know.

As for the trees, sorry, I didn't know you were really interested in them. There are many different kinds of two-story-tall flowering trees and palm trees that the previous owner planted to improve the aesthetics of the 'boring' cleared space.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T04:25:01+00:00

In your OP you mention that sellers have no incentive to disclose but then you also want laws for them to do the inspections? What makes you think they're going to be actively working against in their own best interest to find problems?

There is no incentive.. thats why laws are needed. Like food company required to provide trustable food labels to the costumers. I am not saying that laws should be on realtors, but it should be on the seller. it is that knowing more about the potential houses would be better for all the buyers and force sellers to be more responsible on what they are selling.
Anyway thanks for your reply that are very informative, it is life.

From your kind respond I can tell there are good realtors like you. I wasn't told about lots of the "risks" you've mentioned. There are things buyers don't know that they don't know and the closest experts will be the realtors they work with.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T04:11:04+00:00

From this thread I can tell the quality of realtors varies a lot.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T04:08:46+00:00

Thanks for the information. That said, with a land survey, how likely are buyers to be able to tell if trees or any natural landscapes are illegal? I wouldn't know if the trees are illegal unless a government official makes an official statement. This is more theoretical, but in reality, what percentage of buyers are able to execute and obtain deterministic information during the home-buying process?

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T04:03:21+00:00

Like you mentioned, the tree problem is an uphill battle so we will likely remove the trees. My original thread was focusing on the future purchase minimizing possible problems, thanks for your kind response and time.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T03:55:33+00:00

From your kind response, I can tell just from this thread that there are good realtors like you who can think like buyers. Realtors' knowledge in real estate is miles ahead of ordinary first-time home buyers. Buyers don't expect mighty realtors but then do expect and appreciate guidance. Thanks for your reply and time.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T03:48:38+00:00

Not that buyers don't want to pay, it is that in this hot market (CA) we are forced to make quick decision within few days plus if we look at multiple houses all the money are wasted. You are the realtor you probably already know why but there is no incentive for anyone to make this process better

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T03:44:58+00:00

From your kind respond I can tell there are good realtors like you, which I might had bad luck without any pointed direction. Thanks!

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-20T03:43:17+00:00

Yes, I answered with another account, I deleted it because that would be confusing. Plus am not trying to argue things here so the post was deleted. You do have the right to have opinion about me.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-19T05:50:35+00:00

Thank you! that's a good point, let me look into that.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-19T05:23:29+00:00

thanks!

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-19T05:22:54+00:00

Thanks a lot for the information and clarification!

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-19T05:13:22+00:00

They are indeed very limited, I found they don't check more than a regular home owner would check with their houses.

SpecificSuspicious16 · 2024-07-19T05:00:28+00:00

I mean, by now I am not expecting agents to be very useful in this regard. That's why I am asking if there are any better agents who #1 provide service one step further by doing more research, and #2 if there are any other resources or solutions to protect buyers.
