Purpose of the inspection:
To identify major defective components and safety issues.
To give buyers and sellers a better understanding of the home's condition.
Buyer's Guide:
When preformed by a trained, professional home inspector, the information revealed in the inspection helps buyers understand the true condition of the property. A professional home inspection includes:
A thorough visual inspection of the structure (inside and out, from foundation to roof).
An examination of all major systems (mechanical and electrical).
Evaluation of hundreds of components.
A printed report explaining all significant findings and recommendations.
WHEN SHOULD YOU ORDER A HOME INSPECTION?
Immediately after reaching a written purchase agreement with the home seller. Most real estate purchase agreements include a clause making the purchase contingent on a home inspection for your protection.
Special note: A professional home inspection can take 2 to 3 hours. You may choose to attend the entire inspection or arrive toward the end to review the inspector's significant findings.
PUT INSPECTION FINDINGS IN PERSPECTIVE
Please keep in mind that very few homes are in perfect condition, and most will need some maintenance and TLC. Cosmetic items and conditions previously disclosed by the seller should not be used as a bargaining tool with the seller after the home inspection is completed.
