Welcome to Part 2 with Corey Brasfield!  To get alerted every-time our podcast comes out, join our spam FREE newsletter here: https://tap.bio/@brandon.myrealtor Have you EVER wondered exactly how a home inspection works? Well... probably not unless your looking to buy a home, have sold your home or are BRAND new to Real Estate. The process of buying a home can be SUPER emotional -- especially if it's your first time. Being educated on the home buying process will empower you to make the best decision on one of the biggest decisions of your life. In this two part conversation, I ask Corey Brasfield from Brasfield Home Inspections to lay out EXACTLY what a home inspection is like and what it means for you as a home buyer or seller. As a new Real Estate agent, my goal is to find "coaches" who can guide me into being the BEST Real Estate agent possible. If you're a new RE agent I hope you find these conversations valuable as well. To get alerted every-time our podcast comes out, join our spam FREE newsletter here: https://tap.bio/@brandon.myrealtor
