Thinking of skipping the home inspection? Think again. 

In this episode, Chris Phillips walks you through everything buyers and sellers need to know about home inspections in Middle Tennessee. From timelines and repair requests to red flags and non-negotiables, Chris breaks it down in plain English.

He shares why inspections matter for every home, including new construction, and how one personal experience taught him never to assume a property is problem-free just because it's new. Whether you're in escrow or just starting your search, this episode arms you with the real knowledge you need to protect your investment.

 

Highlights:

  • How Tennessee’s “buyer beware” law impacts your inspection
  • What a good inspector looks for (and why it matters)
  • Chris’s real story about walking away from a brand-new build

 

🎙️ Podcast Quote:

"Just because it's new doesn't mean it's built right." - Chris Phillips

 

Don’t make assumptions, make informed decisions. Reach out to Chris and Kelly for real answers on your next inspection.
