Fire would be really bad for my baseball card and memorabilia collection. Seeing fire trucks come to my house would not make up for that potential damage.

Are you willing to risk the friendship to see if it's more?
We were going to have just a date with me and her on the first date, but then we had a tornado warning right when I was leaving my house to pick her up so we cancelled. I don't mind taking her daughter with us, it just makes me double think before I say or do anything.

I think the next time we go out I may just make a subtle move and see where it goes.

The only NNs here is you who thinks a home inspector would catch the issues inside the current system. There were tons of other reasons to continue with the purchase of the home. No home is going to be 100% perfect upon purchase unless everything was just replaced and/or it was built brand new.

And to give you another good reason for the home purchase, my electric bill this month is $90 thanks to the solar panels. That is another decrease from the month before and yet the dual AC units have been running most days.

Dude she's into you and I'd bet she calls these trips dates is some way or another.

My electric bill was $78 last month and I don't have solar panels.

And I'm willing to bet VT has nowhere near the rates or usage the populated states have down here. I'm also unaware of what all is running off your electric verse other power sources.

Speculating is a no no and can get an inspector sued.

I'll bet you $5.00 that it does not get fixed properly and the issue drags out for weeks.

What is the likelihood they get it mostly installed and find out a part they need is on backorder.
