If this “ENERGY” bill passes aren’t you glad you won’t be selling a house?

September 1st, 2010

Question by Sgt Red: If this “ENERGY” bill passes aren’t you glad you won’t be selling a house?
Right now when you are selling a house if there are issues the buyer can negotiate with the seller and get a discount to fix things you might be willing to fix yourself.
From what I heard yesterday this new Energy bill will put the government into it and they will have to look the house over before it is put on the market and decide if it has the right insulation, the right “energy rating” on appliances etc, etc. and those things will have to be fixed BEFORE you can sell it.
Surely this can’t be true. This is going to hurt a lot of people who don’t have the money up front to spend.
