home inspection went well. some signs of termites - but that's already been treated and addressed. Only other real problem is the shower in the master bath, shower stall is leaking to the ceiling below, part of the wall wasn't caulked properly, and the door isn't aligned correctly and leaks. All pretty unexcusable for a bathroom that was just remodelled.
Morning.
Still not feeling so good today (stayed home sick yesterday).
Had a fairly good weekend though. On Saturday it was 50* and sunny so we got in some awesome Spring skiing. Did my final run of the day in shorts

That's a harbinger of ****ty work elsewhere, IMO.
I've yet to roll out the door. No more bike commuting for me on Long Island after yesterday's near-encounters, made all the easier by the gloom, rain, and 40 degrees outside at the moment.
typically i'd be inclined to agree, but everything else checked out. The inspector we had was really thorough. We spent a little over 3 hours going over everything. Obviously the house isn't gonna be in perfect condition, it is 43 years old.

Don't you mean unclined?
I slept poorly last night due to jet lag. I woke up at around 2am and listened to a tribute to Stompin' Tom Connors podcast. Made me think about working abroad instead of in Canada... Canada is pretty awesome.
Just a few more months...

Morning monkeys!
Killing time at work waiting for my slow-ass computer to do stuff.
Be safe out there.

If they don't agree to fix it, might deep six the deal.
But in case you didn't read the rest of my post, everything else checked out fine.

It's just stuff you can't see in a regular, non-destructive home inspection I'd be worried about. How is the subfloor in the bathroom with the leaking shower? If there's water damage to the ceiling below you know there's all sorts of water damage beneath the shower......to what extent, you can't tell without ripping up tile. Is there termite damage in another portion of the house that you can't see?
Sometimes it's what you can't see that is the biggest problem.

We'll have them check the subfloor as part of the repair work.
Other portions of the house where there's the potential for termite damage are visible and have been checked (did a full termite inspection too, which in PA is a separate inspection from the regular home inspection). Basement is unfinished (so everything is visible). siding was replaced and if there was anything under the siding it would have been caught.
and FYI the area where termite damage was noticed (a section of about 3') was previously treated and was part of the seller disclosure.
not sure how things are up in mass, but here in pa termite damage isn't uncommon.
I looked at about 25-30 houses and I recall seeing termite damage in only a handful.

Haven't settled yet...
Still not feeling so hot, and it's snowing outside. Meh..
to clairfy - we don't own the house yet. we're going to ask the seller to fix it. so no need to file a claim.
Morning kiddos. It's Tuesday, it really felt too early to wake up this morning. Making teh big bucks today.
Afternoon! I am home with no voice and it's pouring rain outside. Dr. visit = anti-inflammatories and antibiotics to treat this lovely sickness! Yeah me!
Had my purple belt promotion last night.
Jiu Jitsu is a weird sport. To celebrate a promotion everyone ties a big knot in their belt, gets it wet and beats you with it until you are covered in welts.
