Buyer Beware! Don't let the rug fool you.
Even after 7 years of selling homes in Central Florida, I still find myself learning something new with every single sale.
This lesson came just last week when a friend had purchased a home from a lovely family who was moving out of state.
There were many rugs throughout the home, which can make a home feel more cozy and comfortable.
Little to our knowledge and come to find out after we closed, one of the rugs was hiding a deficiency in the dinning room floor.
The flooring we saw around the rug was tile, but underneath we found not only a patch of carpet, but also a patch of NO flooring- just concrete! SURPRISE!



We were able to come to an agreement over cost of redoing this space with the listing brokerage. But a lesson was learned:
*During your viewing or inspection: Check under all rugs. Look behind all furniture against the walls. Inspect the walls and flooring thoroughly!*
