“No home is perfect,” says Adam Long, president of HomeTeam Inspection Service, which has more than 200 offices nationwide. “Every home has some safety concerns or issues that may need to be resolved—some right away, some later on. But at the end of the day, every home has issues, and every issue is fixable. It’s up to the buyer, seller and agents to decide what to do about it.”

Buyers may balk at lengthy inspection reports, but not every item is an emergency. Know what may—and may not—be cause for alarm.

From the article: Katzer added, "I think that the real estate market is going to outperform expectation, and I think what we're going to see is that people who've been sidelined trying to time it are going to end up feeling very sad that they didn't actually take action sooner. That's my gut."

Mortgage rates continue to drop to more manageable levels for homebuyers, declining for nine consecutive weeks and potentially dropping further in 2024.
