Has anyone had a septic and well inspection? H and I are buying a farm house built in 1889 and the house has well water and uses a septic system. This is not a short sale or "as is" sale, so we plan to negotiate any repairs needed and I'm just curious how much this might cost us.
Any ideas?
Re: Inspection Questions
We had a home inspection done on a house that we were going to buy. The cost was $505 for the home, septic and radon test. If we had actually went through with the purchase, we would have had to get a mandatory well test for $600.
I would suggest getting them done.
Just to follow up, we have our inspections scheduled for next Fri.
$495 for just the septic.
$575 for the house, 2 barns, radon & termites.
The seller is paying the the well water test.
I sure hope we don't have to walk away after sinking over $1,000 into this property!
