  • Depends on where you live.

    The bank will often send an inspector for a loan, but it’s literally him just walking around and validating there is a house and it’s not in shambles. He’ll look at things like the roof from the outside and when it was redone, but isn’t going to hop into your crawlspace to look for signs of water damage.

    Then you have the “private” inspection company that you can pay to check your home for yourself. These companies are know to cost a lot of money, often detailing things they can’t be sure are “risks”. They’ll go in the crawlspace and note all sorts of things.

    On my house the expensive private inspection said “the roof here is kinda saggin and there’s a bump there, it could be anything”. In the same report he accidentally shows a picture from under the roof where you can see there was a repair and some extra framing, causing the small “bump” that is purely aesthetic. Didn’t mention that part.

    Getting someone to look at it post purchase is likely going to be much cheaper, and I’m definitely not recommending people don’t get inspections when buying houses if they don’t know what they’re doing.














  • “coming your way”. They are coming to corporations. The conservatives are trying to spin that these tax increases to corporations will just be passed on to consumers, like that’s our problem.

    Households bear the burden of the corporate income tax in the form of higher prices and slower wage growth. Companies do not simply absorb the tax, it is passed on to all of us.

    Yeah like not taxing the rich is definitely lowering prices. Suddenly conservatives don’t like the free market so much. They want you to forget that we’re fine with them increasing the prices, they’ve increased them so much someone else will start becoming cheaper, and that’s what they don’t want.

    Theyre also hoping you don’t click on Trumps tax plan. Trump is whining his super plan is going to expire, but that plan was for the rich

    Enacted by former President Donald Trump in 2017, the law drastically overhauled the nation’s tax code, including reducing the top individual income tax bracket to 37% from 39.6% and nearly doubling the size of the standard deduction.
