Home inspectors in Louisiana: what buyers ask
How much does a home inspection cost?
No federal agency sets or publishes a home inspection price. HUD says FHA performs none, and EPA says fix radon at 4 pCi/L or more.
What must a seller disclose in Louisiana?
A Louisiana seller of residential property with one to four dwelling units must complete a property disclosure document and deliver it no later than the time the buyer makes an offer (R.S. 9:3198). If it arrives after the offer, the buyer may cancel within 72 hours with the deposit returned.
