[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Potential buyes will already see that the home has an interior sump pump, which will reveal the basement has had water issues. Given that, seems like it would only help to indicate that things have been fortified with exterior work as well. Wouldn't highlight it in the listing, but I would include it in one of those handy "recent upgrade" sheets that tell you what has been done to the house by current owners.[/quote] This doesn't make sense. In many areas literally every basement will take on water due to a low water table. It's not about ones house having "issues". Thus if the basement is finished or semi-finished I would assume it has been waterproofed appropriately. I'd only point out a French drain for an unfinished, dungeon basement so the buyers know they can finish it.[/quote] Assuming every that basements have been waterproofed is not an assumption that I would make. Many finished basements are not waterproofed. [/quote]
