I loved the house, but not the Heating, Ventilation & A/C system.
Buying a current apartment can sometimes be a shot in the dark.
People can disguise problems they may be having, and leave them for the unsuspecting buyer.
Without a great inspector, you may not suppose you have a problem until it happens. I purchased a home numerous years ago. The seller’s realtor ordered a Heating, Ventilation & A/C inspection company to come in and inspect the entire Heating, Ventilation & A/C system. He left his professional opinion of the Heating, Ventilation & A/C plan on his letterhead and charged his nothing. I should have known that a simple letterhead with hand written problems was a bit suspect. The N/C on the bottom sealed it for me, however I was hoping the realtor had better morals than to lie to me. I wasn’t in the home for more than a week when I had to turn on the a/c. It worked for one morning, and then it died. I called the Heating, Ventilation & A/C supplier that was on the paperwork I had. He came over to the home that same morning. He shook his head and told myself and others he had told the old owner that he needed a current Heating, Ventilation & A/C system. He couldn’t guess I hadn’t told his I wanted the Heating, Ventilation & A/C plan replaced or the price of a current Heating, Ventilation & A/C plan taken off the price, before I purchased the house. I showed him the paperwork I had been given. It was the letterhead of the Heating, Ventilation & A/C inspection company. He shrugged and said he had never heard of him. When he called the PC number on the letterhead, it went to a guy’s PC, and he said that it was his husband, and he was a mechanic. He knew nothing about Heating, Ventilation & A/C.
