2003 Townhouse- Settling/foundation issue

Yasmeen Neal
Posted

Ok BP family I’m wondering if the experienced buyers would consider buy a home in this scenario.

2003 townhome in Woodbridge, VA. The property inspection recommends a structural engineer primarily due to the master bedroom door scrapping the floor and the floor near the door not being level. The inspector is not an expert on these things so I don't want to be overly reliant on his report. He's not certain the issues are related but recommends an expert to come in and check it out.

Hopefully there are contractors on here who have experience with this…could this be simple settling of the home and of no concerns major concerns or is this a major concern.  This is my 3rd inspection on homes I’ve put in offers so it’s becoming costly doing these inspections.  It’s a big investment so I want to definitely have my due diligence on each home I’m considering.

I can renegotiate the price or simply back out.  

thoughts, comments and suggestions are appreciated!!
