Top 5 Issues Found During Home Inspections in Lake Murray

Screen shot.

Lake Murray homes offer charm and lakeside living, but like any region, they come with unique maintenance concerns. At HouseMaster, we’ve inspected countless properties in the area and noticed some recurring themes. Here are the top five issues we find:

  1. Moisture and Mold – Often found in basements and crawl spaces.
  2. Roof Wear – Shingles and flashing degrade from sun and storms.
  3. HVAC Problems – Units often operate year-round, leading to wear.
  4. Plumbing Leaks – Especially in older homes with aging pipes.
  5. Electrical Panel Issues – Outdated wiring or improper installations.

Our trained inspectors know what to look for and how to advise homeowners on next steps, whether that means repair, negotiation, or walking away.
