Once you have a contract to purchase a home, the first thing you should do is have the home inspected. It is common practice in the Owensboro real estate market that the buyer pays for the home inspection. A home inspector will provide you with a very thorough and informative report of the inspection while pointing out any negative items that may need to be repaired. This will give you a very good indication of the condition of the home and all it's major systems and components. Having a solid Realtor representing you is very important when it comes to the inspections. You need a Realtor to negotiate with the sellers any items to be repaired, who will repair them, who will pay for the repairs etc. This can be a very delicate process and needs to be handeled by a professional.
