Buying my first rental - inspection & AC
Buying my first rental
Hi, I’m buying a beat up rental in Terre Haute, Indiana. I am trying to not throw a ton of cash into the fees as I’m already about 12-20k deep in. For the inspection, I can add a $195 “sewer camera inspection” to the already $600 inspection.
The $700 home warranty (1 yearr) comes with a sewerage coverage. So, I would assume that if there is any issues with the sewerage, it would reveal itself within first year and I wouldn’t need the $195 inspection.
Do I need the sewerage inspection camera if I get the home warranty?
Also do I need an electrical inspection? I am getting a general inspection, radon inspection, and termite inspection along with potential sewerage inspection.
If there were issues with electrical and sewerage, does home insurance cover that?
Also, the AC may not work. Will a home warranty cover this? Or is there a way to replace an AC without spending another 5-10k?
Lastly, is it possible to put a “seal” on a current shingled roof, should there be any leaks? Or, would it need an entire new roof?
Thank you in advance
