Just sold our Michigan home in July. 45 showings in 4 days with 15 offers over asking price. That was great! We took the highest offer and then the buyers inspection. Everything went great until the last thing they checked was the sewer line and found a hole in the clay pipe about 8 feet outside the house. I was getting quotes to replace or install a liner that were running $20,000+. It was the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat in two days! I ended up finding a plumber that just lined the bad spot as the rest was good so it only cost $6,500 and I was happy with that.
