Important Ways to Protect Your Interest

There are several ways to help support a trouble-free home purchase:

• A written property disclosure statement from the seller will reveal any problems with the house and the surrounding area that you need to know about.
• Professional inspections can reveal structural, roof, termite, and other problems with the property that the seller will need to remedy.
• A home warranty can give you peace of mind by providing repair-or-replace coverage of major home operating systems and appliances.
• A preliminary title report informs you of any problems with the property’s title and a policy of title insurance protects your rights to the property.
• A walk-through before closing will allow you to make sure all required work has been taken care of and that the property is ready to become yours.
