Electrical Issues Can Ruin Deals

Electrical issues are some of the most costly — and potentially dangerous — issues uncovered in any home inspection. In fact, the American Society of Home Inspectors counts electrical issues as one of the top deal-killers in the home-buying process. Some of the most frequent electrical issues found include: • Undergrounded three-prong plugs • Painted outlets • Double tapping of circuit breakers • Reversed polarity • Improperly modified electrical panels • Knob and tube wiring • Aluminum wiring • Federal Pacific breaker panels • No GFCI protection Unless the extent of your electrical issues is a burned-out lightbulb, all electrical work should be handled by a licensed professional.
