"Flippers gonna flip"—pipes are duct taped together, outlets aren't even wired, roof has active leaks, and the wood is rotting…

The housing market is bonkers right now—prices are not only through the roof, but “house flippers” are also “flipping” old homes just to upsell them and you might just fall through the roof. Thank god for home inspectors! Whether you're about to drop $200k (not sure where, but I'm sure there are places somewhere still that cheap…) or $1 million (also, don't know where you're getting that kind of money unless you're part of the 1%…) you should get your home inspected. Even brand new homes aren't up to code. But it's flippers that truly are the bane of home buyers' existence. They're keeping home inspectors employed and busy, that's for sure! It's just insane some of the things these sellers think they can get away with. Wood that you take on step on and you'll fall right through; appliances that you can't even open to use; rain spouts that are put together with duct tape. Like, how can you even in good conscience sell a place like that to somebody?? Because of these “house flippers," home inspectors are becoming home buyers' heroes.
You don't need to shower anyways. Conserve some water.
Why have one switch that turns on the lights when you can have two! It's like your home is giving you a riddle.
Did they not think the roof would be inspected?? I mean, they really gave it the landlord special and even painted over the skylight!
If you see a fresh coat of paint always always check the wood, they could be hiding something. An easy way to check is to see if it slices like a piece of cake!
Why even install a brand new dishwasher if you're going to put it in somewhere that makes it impossible to open??
Just get some duct tape that's the same colors as your gutter spouts and you're good to go, right??
Why do you need to plug anything in anyways? It's not like the wiring is up to code…
It's because the inspector is there and the house is nervous—you should be more sensitive.
Wow, I didn't know they made Bluetooth outdoor water faucets! Now you can take your hose on the go.
The seller was so sure of it that they cut a hole in the ceiling to prove it. lol Inspectors got proven right.
Oh, was that stovetop vent supposed to lead somewhere?…
