Let us further explain some key times when an inspection would benefit you. If you're buying a home, getting a home
inspection means you know about any problems and their solutions before you
move in. If you're selling a home, getting a home inspection means you know you're complying with full disclosure laws, and
means you can consider selecting contractors rather than waiting for the buyer
to do so. If you've just done extensive remodeling, a home inspection
can help you make certain the contractors did the job correctly.
Suggested Inspections
New Home Inspection
Because the quality of new construction quality is
often not what it used to be some years ago, many buyers have independent
reviews of their properties during various stages of the construction process,
including slab, frame, and final inspection. This relatively inexpensive
inspection protects your purchase, prevents unpleasant surprises, and ensures
the quality home that you’ve dreamed about.
Pre-Listing Inspection
Whether you are selling your home on your own or
using a realtor, it’s always a prudent idea to have a professional home
inspection. Knowledge is power. All homes have strengths and weaknesses: we help you answer how serious the problems
are and which must be immediately addressed and which can wait. The more you
know about your home, the more prepared you will be for negotiation.
1-Year Warranty Inspection
With your new home purchase you automatically get a
1- year bumper to bumper warranty. A lot of natural “settlement” occurs in the
first year as your home settles into its new environment.
Most new homes that are going to develop major
deficiencies may begin to show obvious problems within their first year. Some defects
will not be obvious to the untrained eye.
It is prudent to get a home inspector’s list of items that will most
likely be repaired by your builder at no cost to you. You will be reassured knowing that potential
problems were addressed before they grew into something that could cost you a
great deal down the road.
Previously-Built Inspection
The best way to ensure that you are well informed
about the strengths and weaknesses of a property is to have a professional home
inspection. Home inspectors are trained to identify problem areas both small
and large that may have been overlooked by the previous owners and to identify
which require immediate attention.
Let your inspector spot the problems (new and old),
before you commit to so major an investment and decision. A trained professional has seen it all and
will provide invaluable help in turning you into a knowledgeable consumer. Home owners can identify problems in the
making and take preventive measures to avoid costly repairs. Sellers can understand conditions the buyer’s
inspector may point out and put the property in better selling condition by
making repairs.
