It appears the seller has agreed to have everything fixed that was disclosed in the Inspection Summary and a Structural Engineer is scheduled to go out later this week to look at the questionable foundation columns. The seller states that he had the house inspected at the time he purchased it and the county had to inspect it the first time the house was sold and the columns and girders presented no problems either time.
As long as I can get a statement from an Engineer proclaiming the foundation safe then we’ve bought a house. The underwriting mortgage company called me today and the rate’s been set so all that’s left is the repairs and the closing. Looks like we’re moving in a month.
