Are Well & Septic Distance Issues Stalling Your Closing?

Are Well & Septic Distance Issues Stalling Your Closing?  

   Well

FHA Guidelines have changed; are you up to speed?

It seems most involved in a Real Estate Transaction are not!

100 Feet is the new minimum! If you're under do you know what needs to be done?

Lenders will tell you they can offer a waiver but don't buy it! They have their own rules and they are sometimes more stringent than HUD!

 

BUYER'S:

Does your Realtor know how to protect your "Hard Earned Money"?

Take it from me it's not easy when the Lender changes the rules in the home stretch!

 

Septic         

Do your septic inspection first and if you are under 75 feet do not spend another dime until your lender sends the package to HUD for a waiver. Do not take no for an answer. Do not let your lender tell you they will waive it for you. Do not trust this! They are known to change their mind in the last hours and delay your closing if it ever happens at all. Once you have spent that Home Inspection Money, there is no way to get it back!

Let the seller pay for the water test that will be needed as part of the determination to waive. You may have to reimburse if it's waived but if it's denied why should it cost you. If the seller's property doesn't meet current code and doesn't qualify for a waiver why should you be out? It's simple, you shouldn't!

Looking for a BUYER'S AGENT that knows the job at hand? Look no further!
