Water issues are some of the worst issues to have in a house. I hope they fix it fully with some sort of a warranty or something.

Yeah I'm glad at least we're on the same page here. My agent pissed me off the most yesterday. "Oh the VA inspector can't fail it just because it's not what the pipping they prefer to see. They can't fail it because it's PEX or something they don't like. Maybe they won't even go into the crawlspace. What really matters is that they don't find moisture down there."



Just so much to unpack there... I'm just imagining an inspector with a meter in his hand, stomping through puddles in the crawlspace, majestic waterfalls in the background, looking down and going "yup, readings look good"


Perhaps I need to be crystal clear tomorrow: this is not some kind of silly preference. This is a known DEFECTIVE PRODUCT actively failing before our very eyes. The house gets repipped by a reputable plumber AND I get a detailed report on the damage of that current leak or I'm fucking walking. I'm not throwing half a million dollars on the table unless I have a good feeling about the place, good grief I find it weird I even have to say that.
