QUESTION: Can you sue a termite inspector if you later find they missed some termite damage? 
ANSWER: Not if the termite inspector put you on notice your house needed further inspection. 

Judge Milian of the People's Court (guilty pleasure here!) breaks it down for this home buyer who is suing his termite inspector. Basically, the inspector warned the home buyer that the house needed more evaluation and  that he could not give it a pest clearance. The buyer at least  was smart enough to get the home inspected, but what is the good of doing an inspection if you don't follow their advice?! 

It's like if you go see a doctor & he tells you to get further tests done because you might have diabetes. You do no tests, and soon after you get diagnosed with diabetes. You ain't gonna sue the doc?! Nuh-uhhhh! 

IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE:  I like the plaintiff's lavender tie. But, umm, his hair. I have no words. 

Another fabulous LogoTV viewer pops Hermanity a question.  I love hearing from you guys! 

Question:  I'm selling my house soon. Should I do a pre-inspection? 
Answer: Yes! It's like getting tested at the clinic. No one likes surprises! Trust me, it'll save you a lot of heartache & pain down the line. A pre-inspection gives a seller a chance to correctify any outstanding repairs, gives the buyer a more clear picture of the house's condition and helps mitigates negotiations in escrow. 

Has a pre-inspection ever saved your deal? I wanna hear!

QUESTION: The house we're buying has chimney damage. My agent says we should focus on our loan instead?  Is that right?
ANSWER: Yikes, your agent just wants to sweep the chimney under the rug & focus on his commission! Watch my video for the 3 steps you need to take ASAP! 

Remember guys, you are the client. Your agent is supposed to always have your back & protect your best interests. A great realtors does what is right for you, not for their wallet! 

Have you come across any agents who were looking out for themselves more than you? Vent here!

This is a commonly asked question I get from buyers, and I am sooooo glad I got a chance to answer this for LOGO's viewers.

VIEWER QUESTION: We're buying a new construction house. Do we still need to do an inspection?

HERMANITY ANSWER: I don't get this. People are willing to spend 1/2 a million bucks for a house, but can't bear to spend couple hundred dollars for an inspection. It's small price to pay for peace of mind folks....
