Be Wary of Fresh Paint

Sadly, sometimes you just can’t trust people; so letting your guard down when buying a home is a sure way to get stuck with a lemon with a 30 year mortgage.

That’s not to say everyone selling a house is a crook, just that it’s important to be skeptical when viewing a home. If every room has an air freshener and all the walls have been freshly painted, there might be cause to worry.

We’ve seen instances of sellers painting sections of a wall to cover mold growth, or loading the home with fragrances to mask a moldy smell. Don’t leave all the investigative work to a home inspector, there are lots of small clues that reveal big problems if you just keep your eyes peeled.

Never be afraid to ask questions or dig for the truth! You’re the one who is going to be making the purchase, never be ashamed for trying to be informed about a home.
Asking questions and being cautious can save you a lot of time, money and headache.

This series is not intended to replace the need for a professional inspection, just providing general guidance for home buyers.
