obivously something is missing here, those pipes surely should attatch to something...but what...
and what would be attatched to it that doesnt attatch to anything else, theres nothing on the house that anything could be attatched too...
nothing comming from under the house anything could attatch to...
im absolutly clueless when it comes to wells but thats what i thought it might be...
but the only well houses ive seen have roofs...rather than just being open...
the house is also septic, and gas (im assuming natural because theres no propane tank) lol
the house is on well water, but ive no idea if this is the well supplying the house. a well inspection is part of the conditions...
according to the fha inspecton while nothing is turned on everything is holding pressure inside the house...FHA has a $0 repair excrow on it...
but having a new well drilled is not going to happen and the bank wont approve the loan without a working well... the house is 20 yrs old. its a HUD home and was lived in untill february of this year
and why would you automatically abandon it without having it tested?
as i said, im clueless about wells lol, just tryign to better understand some of the more technical aspects.

That is not the well being used.
Have a driller take a look.
The age of the house makes no difference.
FHA inspectors are NOT drillers.
Also, check for records at your local health department.

Wells not in use need to be abandoned.
It is code.
We drill many wells each year where HUD has said they were good.
well i do know that nothing is currently working inside the house (no water, no electric) and when we took a look around the house (i walked the entire 2 1/2 acres there were no other well houses, but i dont know if they do wells a different way now...
so does that mean that if that is the well that was supplying the house up untill it was forclosed it would have to be abandoned and a new one drilled no matter what?
its tough because im trying to do this long distance, ive been to the house in person but im in ct and its in tn, so its not like i can just call a driller and say "do this" i dont own the house, HUD does not to mention the county the house is in isnt exactly "technologiclaly advanced" lol...noone advertises on the interwebs around there lol...
...so im trying to get a better idea of what the well inspector is going to say since hud isnt going to fix anything...
as i say, workng on getting the well and septic inspected, and a water test, home inspection will also come...but if i know for sure "theres no working well and a new one will HAVE to be dug" then i know not to move forward because drilling a new well isnt in the budget...
i can repair some light wood rot, i can replace the windows myself (i have and do) i can do pretyt muhc anythign thats not electircal or severly structural myself thanks to many years of working on older homes...
but the cost involved with drilling a new well or putting in a brand new septic...that i cant take on...
