What a Home Inspection includes:

A typical home inspection reviews the condition of the home’s structure and any systems affecting occupancy of the home. The report will describe the house’s physical condition and indicate what may need major repair or replacement. The inspection generally takes 2 to 4 hours to perform, and the report is generated the same day. The report includes digital photos. Below are some benefits to a residential home inspection.

• Provides an objective, detailed examination and report of the present condition of the home and it’s surrounding property, essential for making a sound decision.
• Provides peace of mind in a typically stressful transaction.
• Provides a list of immediately needed repairs, as well as a list of future areas of concern.
• Provides information that can potentially be used to negotiate a better price.
• When present at the inspection, you will be educated in the location and operation of your homes water, heat, gas and electrical shut offs and more.
• The inspector is available to answer your questions regarding the report of findings, or as issues arise during your transaction.

Who Needs a Home Inspection?

Home Buyers
A prospective home buyer should learn as much as he or she can about the condition of the property

and the need for any major repairs before the purchase.  A seller may adjust the purchase price or

make repairs if major problems are found.

Home Sellers
A prospective home seller may wish to have an inspection prior to placing his or her house on the market in order to make repairs that will put the house in better selling condition.
