Caveat Emptor on the Spyglass house. The builder’s past is littered with lawsuits, judgements and fraud. Those dark stains on the interior walls. Yeah, those are from leaks.
A friendly reminder to do your research on your builders and contractors. Make sure to have a local attorney review everything, before you sign anything with anyone. Doing this will save you an untold amount of time, trouble and money.
FWIW, ChatGPT passed the bar exam. I subscribe to the pro version and have stopped using attorneys to go over contracts (as an entrepreneur, I’ve spent a huge amount of money on attorneys over the years). ChatGPT has no conflicts of interest. I had a law firm I paid for almost 10 years that wouldn’t represent me because they supposedly had a “conflict” with a large bank that was violating their contract to call a low interest rate commercial mortgage (claiming they had represented the bank previously) only to not represent me in a real estate transaction when a billionaire bought a house I owned because they claimed the billionaire had already contracted with them. Needless to say, the two faced creeps wanted the more affluent client.
Always great to see that people see more on photos than any inspector ever saw on-site and in person…
Where can we book those remote consultations and inspections?
Ever thought about that was reflected in the price?
Did the Saladino house sell furnished? I presume many of the pieces in the house are original to the property – or are these old listing photos?
