One of the things I’m encountering as a new homeowner is the extra hidden expenses beyond what can be found by the official inspection and appraisal process. Hired an electrician and found $13K worth of electrical issues to bring up to code and compliance.

Having to rewire the house for proper internet because the house is from the 80s and wasn’t really setup for it. This is so there can be direct lines for Ethernet ports through the house. Another $10K.
