... The 3 words that no one wants to here these days
whether it is during the inspection period of a home sale
or during an insurance renewal application
more and more times we are finding that there is work to be done
and since the cost of roofing materials
as well as construction labor
has risen dramatically
it can be a pricey problem
during a home sale
buyers and sellers are quite often forced
to do some sort of renegotiation of price and terms
other times the sale simply gets cancelled
and the roofing problem is temporarily unresolved
the owner is then left to sell the home AS IS
or do the repairs/replacement on their own
with the belief that they will net more money at the closing table
for the time and effort to address the roof concerns
once the roof has been completed
its likely that the roof portion of the insurance policy will be less costly
and provide some future benefit to the homeowner
but living in the times instant gratification
and the savings accumulating slowly over time
not everyone feels that the cost/benefit is ideal for them
today's show talks more about the scenarios that unfold
