1/2 of homebuyers did not figure an extra $2,000 to $5,000 to buy their home. (1) THE INSPECTION: to pay the inspector & maybe more inspectors, such as structural issues, & asbestos. It’s money well spent, but after inspections the buyer can decide to not buy the house. (2) BRINGING CASH TO THE CLOSING TABLE: buyers should know that ahead of time, but still can be a shock & needs to be planned for. Could be thousands of dollars. MORE TO COME!
