From The Desk Of...

The CEO Water sports and fireworks are two of the biggest pastimes for 4th of July celebrations, and these are both linked to numerous deaths and injuries each year.

The Monthly Grapevine® 9040 Brentwood Boulevard, Suite B Brentwood, CA 94513 Available in Person Monday 9am - 4:30pm Tuesday - Thursday 9am - 5pm Friday by Appointment Main Office: 925.634.0880 Fax: 925.634.7822 Write us at: info@monthlygrapevine.com 24/7 at www.monthlygrapevine.com

The Contra Costa County Fire Protection District reminds everyone the sales, possession, or use of all fireworks are illegal in Contra Costa County, including sparklers and other so-call “Safe & Sane” fireworks.

Attending a fireworks display organized by professionals is always safer. Antioch’s Historic Downtown Rivertown will be having their celebration including fireworks on the River on July 4th. If you miss that, the Brentwood Cornfest has their annual fireworks display on Friday night, July 13th.

Be a safe swimmer by never swimming alone and make sure that the kids’ water play is adequately supervised at all times.

Use alcohol responsibly and arrange a designated driver. Remember also that alcohol and swimming can be as dangerous as drinking and driving.

Review safe boating practices and don’t drink and drive your boat. Alcohol consumption while operating boats or other motorized water vessels is illegal.

PRUDENTIAL REALTY

More often, inspections reveal less serious defects that aren’t enough to warrant canceling the transaction. However, knowing about these minor problems can prevent major disasters down the road or aid in the long term maintenance.

How Important Is A Home Inspection?

Another advantage to having a home inspection is it offers buyers an opportunity to become familiar with their new home and learn about maintenance to help in its upkeep. It is always recommended that buyers be present during the inspection. This allows them to observe the inspection ask questions about the condition of the home and receive an objective opinion.

Whether buying or selling, a home inspection is always a good course of action.

A home inspection is a visual examination of both the physical structure and major systems of the entire home including: walls, ceilings, oors, decks, exterior covering, the roof, foundation, insulation and ventilation, plumbing, electrical, heating and air conditioning. It is not an appraisal to validate the value of a home, nor a pass/fail exam. A thirdparty inspector will give a report on the physical condition and suggest repairs or improvements to the house.

For sellers, conducting a home inspection (or pre-inspection) before listing their homes puts the control back into their hands.

By having a pre-inspection, the seller can help eliminate any surprise ďŹ ndings after an offer has been made. The seller can make repairs before placing the home on the market and possibly even increase the value of the home.

For buyers, a home inspection is performed during the inspection period in the sales contract. If a serious problem is found, it provides a tool for negotiation or reason to cancel the purchase.

A pre-inspection can also serve as a great marketing tool. Having a pre-inspection

report available for buyers gives them a clearer picture of the condition of the home and shows a willingness of full disclosure on the seller’s part.

If there are major problems found during the pre-inspection, it gives the seller an opportunity to disclose the condition upfront, making it less likely for the buyer to pull out of the deal or try to renegotiate the price.

Knowing the true condition of a home can bring peace of mind to buyers and sellers; and be one less hurdle in the home buying and selling process. Ask your real estate sales professional for a list of certiďŹ ed independent home inspectors in your area.
