Hot take: My uncle told me to never buy a house with a basement in the South

He said they always flood and I laughed it off back in 2018 when I bought a cute little place in Greenville SC. Fast forward to last June after a solid week of rain and I had 4 inches of water in my finished basement. Cost me about $3,000 to fix the drywall and carpet. Anyone else ignore older family member advice and regret it?

Blew right past his warning and straight into a swimming pool inside your own house. $3,000 ouch but hey at least now you've got a good story next time he brings it up.

Gotta love when a DIY project turns into an unexpected indoor pool feature.
