soon you will be able to spot water damaged that was badly painted over, poor multi-zone heating setups, the dent in the backyard where the sewer/septic collapsed, the rotting fences, the hastily repaired deck, and all the other bad things every property has.
you'll sense when the agent, yes, even your buyer's agent is lying or has made a deal with the enemy. you'll know the dollar figure to the closest 100 on what needs repair and how much. you'll come to associate the smell of fresh baked bread or pie with deceit (they do that to make a home feel nicer. no, really...)
your journey will only begin with places like home despot and local hardware stores, and hell, it will never end. you'll be looking at houses from now on, most likely.
sez the veteran of looking at 100s of houses for himself and others and the son of a real estate agent.
