The I-5 Technology Corridor, running through the heart of the South, spans the market and supports high tech growth. Hattiesburg offers residents many options in recreation, leisure and social activities. Hattiesburg is also home to many fine schools including the University of Southern Mississippi.

Real Estate Tips
First Time Buyers >Inspection Contingencies

Many of today's purchase offers include a contingency clause that allows the buyers to hire a home inspector or professional expert to inspect the property. If there is a significant defect in the property, the buyer can cancel the contract without losing the earnest money deposit. Contingencies are excellent procedures that protects both the buyer and the seller.

The time period for inspection contingencies is negotiable. In most parts of the country, the buyers have about a week in which to cancel the contract if the structural inspection reveals a serious and consequential defect. The positive side to such contingencies is that the inspection usually addresses--and overcomes--the buyers' misgivings, and confirms their decision to move ahead with the purchase.
