Homeowners

Buyers

The purchase of a home is probably the largest single investment you will ever make. You should learn as much as you can about the condition of the property and the need for any major repairs before you buy, so that you can minimize unpleasant surprises and difficulties afterwards.


Of course, a home inspection will also point out the positive aspects of a home, as well as the maintenance that will be necessary to keep it in good shape. After the inspection, you will have a much clearer understanding of the property you are about to purchase, and will be able to make a

 confident buying decision.

Sellers

If you have owned your home for a long time, a home inspection can identify problems in the making and recommend preventive measures which might avoid costly future repairs. In addition, home sellers may opt for having an inspection prior to placing the home on the market to gain a better understanding of conditions which the buyer's inspector may point out. This provides an opportunity to make repairs that will put the house in better selling condition.

Common Questions

What will it cost?

Our pricing for a home inspection is based on the gross square footage of the home (everything under roof, not just the heated square footage).


However, do not let cost be a factor in deciding whether or not to have a home inspection, or in the selection of your home inspector.  The knowledge gained from an inspection is well worth the cost, and the lowest priced inspector is not necessarily a bargain.  The inspector's qualifications, including his experience, training, and professional affiliations, should be the most important consideration.

Can a house fail inspection?

No.  A professional home inspection is an examination of the current condition of your prospective home.  It is not an appraisal, which determines market value, or a municipal inspection, which verifies local code compliance.  A home inspector, therefore, will not pass or fail a house, but rather describe its physical condition and indicate what may need repair or replacement.

If the house proves to be in good condition, did I really need an inspection?

Definitely.  Now you can complete your home purchase with peace of mind about the condition of the property and all its equipment and systems.  You will also have learned a few things about your new home from the inspector's report, and will want to keep that information for future reference.  Above all, you can feel assured that you are making a well informed purchase decision, and that you will be able to enjoy your new home the way you want to.
