Should a cash buyer in Awendaw still get an inspection?

A cash buyer in Awendaw should still get a full inspection, since paying without financing removes a lender's appraisal requirement but does nothing to reveal a property's actual condition, especially on Awendaw's older or more rural homes where well, septic, and structural issues are common. Skipping that step to close faster risks a costly surprise after the sale is final. Brian Beatty recommends every Awendaw cash buyer keep an inspection regardless of how quickly they want to close.
