Flipping Realities: What Every Buyer and Seller Should Know

In this episode of Flip Happens, we dive deep into the world of real estate and home inspections with a dynamic panel of professionals who bring clarity and insight to one of the most critical stages of buying and selling a home. Host Darlin is joined by key players in the industry, including:

• Lauryn, Media Specialist at Theweofme Flips
  
  
  
• Natalie Henson, Residential Real Estate Agent
  
  
  
• Allison Garner, Agent Connection Specialist at My City Chattanooga Home Inspector
  
  
  
• Drew Bain, CEO of My City Chattanooga Home Inspector
  
  
  

Together, they explore the real-life scenarios and often messy realities behind flipping homes—especially those affected by tragedy, neglect, or damage. They share expert advice on how to choose a home inspector, why timing matters in inspections, and what sellers can do to prepare homes for a smoother transaction.

Listeners will learn:

• What makes a home inspection team a “one-stop shop”
  
  
  
• How to navigate scary-looking issues that are often minor
  
  
  
• The value of pre-listing inspections and follow-ups
  
  
  
• Why perfection in inspection reports is a myth—and what matters more
  
  
  
• How home inspectors and agents collaborate to build trust and ensure transparency
  
  
  

Packed with personal stories, practical advice, and even a few shocking discoveries from the field (squatters, angry raccoons, and crawlspace nightmares!), this episode offers a candid look at the high-stakes, high-emotion world of home inspections and renovations. Whether you're a homeowner, flipper, buyer, or agent, this conversation delivers valuable tools and perspective.
