Never buy a house without a home inspection
Ontario's hot housing market continues to spark bidding wars and, in many cases, buyers are being advised by agents to make "clean" offers to get the house they want.
By "clean", the agent means an offer without any conditions in order to make it more acceptable to the seller. Big mistake. I constantly hear stories from 'successful' home buyers, who bought without an inspection.
They later uncovered major problems, many of which could have been identified with a proper inspection. This meant large repair bills and unfortunate lawsuits involving unhappy buyers, sellers and real estate agents.

That shift has been the story of Toronto in recent decades and shows no sign of slowing down. Why should it? Who wouldn't want to live in a part of downtown that pretty well sums up what the city, urbanity itself, is all about?
