Option Period Inspection and What to Look For
It all begins with an idea.
So, you’ve decided to do it!
You’ve finally decide to place an offer on your dream home. How exciting! You’ve made a list of your want’s and needs, and checked it twice!
Great Neighborhood
Three Bedrooms
Two and a Half Baths
Spacious and Updated Kitchen with Granite Countertops
Hardwood Floors
Great Backyard
Corner Lot
Excellent School District
BUT! Did you make sure to check off the most important thing on your list? That’s right…the foundation.
Purchasing a home, especially in Austin Texas, can be a pretty stressful process. With multiple offers and buyers offering over asking price (which I’m assuming you too have done), many buyers assume that once their offer has been accepted; the rest is a walk in Zilker Park! That couldn’t be further from the truth. After the contract has been executed the buyer can choose to enter into “option period’” which they have the ability to complete their due diligence and have the home inspected. This is usually where a home inspector is contracted to come in and comb through the home for any issues. They will look at various things to include the HVAC System, roof, electrical, plumbing, the insulation in the attic.
“The Option Period in Texas is a specified number of days set forth in a real estate contract which allows the buyer to terminate the contract for any reason. This option, when written into a real estate contract, creates the right to terminate the contract within a certain number of days for a specified price without risking the earnest money deposit.”
Often times the foundation is not included in this inspection!

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
