AboutHOME INSPECTION

When buying a home, getting a home inspected will perhaps be one of the most important things done to insure that the home is secure and safe. A home inspection is a visual examination of the property’s general structure and components. Many notable organizations such as Zillow.com have shared articles recommending buyers as well as sellers to get a home inspection prior to buying or selling a home.

Some of the benefits you receive when having your property of interest inspected are:
• The opportunity to be educated on the specifics of your home (or soon to be home).
• Peace of mind, knowing that the home is in sound condition.
• Negotiate price reduction or repairs prior to closing escrow.
• Future needs. Customers can learn about potential maintenance and upkeep.
• A warranty of 30 days after the inspection

A trained and experienced inspector will perform a general home inspection, which includes:

• EXTERIOR
• STRUCTURE
• ROOF
• FOUNDATION
• GARAGE
• ATTIC
• HEATING AND COOLING
• FIREPLACE & CHIMNEY
• ELECTRICAL
• WATER HEATER
• PLUMBING
• LAUNDRY AND VENTILATION
• INTERIOR ROOMS
• KITCHEN
• BATHROOMS
• POOL & SPA

Residential home inspections have become more popular over the last decade, due to a higher demand for buyer (borrower) protection. While a home inspector does not determine if a home is worth buying or in livable condition, a home inspector’s job is to find deficiencies and other substandard conditions to the above listed areas and components. Whether a home’s areas and components are in serviceable condition or substandard condition should be reported accordingly by the inspector.

For this reason customer should be careful in selecting a reliable home inspection company to perform the inspection on their investment. The process of selecting a home inspector should be taken with a serious approach and not lightly. Having a reliable inspection company on your side will benefit you in the long term.
