Most buyers have a home inspected by a home and structural pest control ("termite") inspector. Additional inspections recommended, such as for roof or drainage, should also be done.Ideally, you want to know not only the severity of a defect, but how much it will cost to repair. An item that is often overlooked during buyers' inspections is the permit history on the house. Many times a new homeowner will apply for a permit to do some work on their home and when they apply at the city building department, they find out that previous owners took out permits that were still outstanding with no record of final approvals given. The permit request will be denied by the city. This happens all the time. The homeowners then have to do all of the work that all of the previous permits covered, get the city to inspect the work performed, then get final approval. This can cost the new homeowner thousands of dollars for repairs not even counting the time and disruption it can cause.While you're checking out the permit situation, be sure to research if any back fees are owed against the property for past permits or anything else.

We in the SouthBay are so lucky to have so many shopping options available to us. I just returned from one of the many local farmers markets and what a great experience. Just knowing you are able to get farm fresh veggies, locally and organically grown, along with other great bargains like house plants and gift options is nice. We are able to go into most cities in the South Bay and attend one of the various outdoor markets almost any day of the week. Today, I went to the Torrance Farmers Market. The Torrance Outdoor market is located just north of Sepulveda Blvd. and Crenshaw Blvd. at the beautiful Wilson Park. It's open on Tuesday and Saturdays and has some great deals. It's worth going to this Farmers Market just to experience one of Torrance's many beautiful parks. Take the kids and maybe picnic lunch and enjoy the day. (There are B-B-Qs available here) Read More
