INSPECTION SERVICES
Pre-Purchase Inspection
Pre-puchase or buyer's inspections are the most common type of home inspection. Whether you are trying to purchase a house that has been occupied before or one newly constructed, an inspection provides you with peace of mind concerning the condition of the home or the information needed to negotiate for repairs. The inspection process involves a professional review of all systems (plumbing, electrical, heating, etc). It is an unbiased, thorough assessment that provides a snapshot of the current condition of the property. The information gained can help you make important decisions about the property.
Home Warranty Inspection
If you have purchased a new home, the builder is typically required to provide a one-year warranty. An inspection prior to the end of the warranty period can help uncover defects from construction that perhaps have unfolded as the initial year has passed. For example, problems such as plumbing leaks may not be obvious right away. A home warranty inspection helps identify areas of concern that can be addressed with the builder before the warranty expires.
Pre-Listing Inspection
If you are thinking of selling your home, an inspection before putting your house on the market is a wise investment. A professional inspector is trained to notice what you as the homeowner may not and the inspection process can alert you to conditions that may cause a buyer to avoid pursuing the purchase of your home. Knowing what objections are likely to be raised by a buyer provides you the opportunity to address them in advance. A pre-listing inspection and the knowledge gained can help expedite the sale of your home.
