turns out the previous owners where slobs and hated by everyone that lived there, never cut the grass and let their kids run wild... and it shows, I have to put all new carpet in, patch a few holes, and clean off caked cockroach shit from the walls, it was was so bad i thought it was mold at first and almost freaked out

I hope you dropped several dozen fumigation bombs in that house. If you don't kill every last one of those mother fuckers they will multiply and get out of hand again. Do it now before you clean it up and move in.

That's sweet. I think somewhere down the line I'd like to build an external garage at the bottom of our side drive. Would be nice to be able to keep the bike, lawn equipment and eventually a boat in it.

Get an exterminator in there pronto. Forget the bombs, the fog doesn't get into the areas it needs to. And if you see a roach, kill it with a paper towel, not your shoe. If you step on a roach, the eggs can pop out and then you'll track them around your house on the bottom of your shoe. Get an exterminator, even if you've been told that an exterminator was already there and taken care of the problem. Make damn certain those things are dead and gone, cause once you bring food in the house, you'll be in a world of hurt if there are any roaches hiding anywhere.

We don't know if the are still there or.if they has someone. the only evidence is tracings on the wall. we haven't seen any bodies or actual specimens. so there is a chance that they had it taken care of and its no.longer a problem. I am going to have an extermination crew one take a look at it ASAP.

What did the home inspector say/think? You cant trust the sellers in a situation like this, they will half ass everyting just to get the sale done.

The home inspector is sending his report in this week. we are waiting on the contract to come back and set a closing date, barring horrific news

Did you walk around withthe inspector? I did with my guy and was very informative, also helps since he can answer questions and tell you stuff on the spot too.
