When Do I Call In The Home Inspector?
It is not necessary, but recommended
that you be present at the inspection, from start to finish.
You can always
call me and discuss any aspect of your home inspection. My
service is a long-term investment.
A home
inspection summarizes the condition of a property, points out
the need for major repairs and identifies areas that may need
attention in the near future. Buyers and sellers depend on an
accurate home inspection to maximize their knowledge of the
property in order to make intelligent decisions before executing
an agreement for sale or purchase.
A standard home
inspection summarizes findings from a visual inspection of the
condition of the subject home’s heating system, central air
conditioning system (temperature permitting), interior plumbing
and electrical systems; roof, attic, and visible insulation;
walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors; foundation,
basement, and the visible structures of the home.
No. A professional home inspection is
an examination of the current condition of your home. It is not
an appraisal, which determines market value, or a municipal
inspection, which verifies compliance to local codes and
standards. A home inspector will not pass or fail a house. A
home inspection describes the physical condition of a property
and indicates what may need repair or replacement.
Before you sign the contract or
purchase agreement, make your purchase obligation contingent
upon the findings of a professional home inspection. Home
inspectors are aware of the time constraints involved in
purchase agreements and most are available to conduct the
required inspection within a few days.
