Buying a home can be a stressful process, especially if it's your first property.  Part of it is the uncertain nature of the process and the risks involved with buying a home you know very little about.  That's why the standard contract (at least in NJ) has a 14-day inspection period, which allows the buyer to perform all necessary inspections and present any requests for repairs, remediation, or credits to the seller.

Most buyers just do the regular home inspection.  However, there are 3 important add-ons every buyer should consider when schedule their inspection.  These are:
- Oil tank sweep
- Radon test
- Sewer line scope

I dive into the importance of all three in this episode, so don't miss it!
