 Home
buyers now entering the marketplace view a home inspection as
a way to gain valuable information concerning the biggest purchase
of their lifetime. An inspection helps them to determine whether
there are any defects or system inadequacies before the sale
goes through, so there will be no unpleasant surprises or insurmountable
financial burdens later on. |
|
Home inspections
are not intended to point out every small problem or any non-visible
defects in a home. Most minor or cosmetic flaws, for example,
should be apparent without the aid of a professional. Home inspections
also highlight the positive aspects of a home. In fact, our
Inspector's observations or recommendations can help to dispel
home buyers' anxieties, and to provide useful repair and maintenance
suggestions. |

 The
purchase of a home is probably the largest single investment
you will ever make. You should know exactly what to expect -
both indoors and out - in terms of repair and maintenance and
their costs. Water marks in the basement may indicate a chronic
seepage problem or may simply be the result of a single incident.
The Home Inspector interprets these and other clues, then presents
his professional opinion as to the condition of the property
before you buy. |
|
A
home inspection should not be confused with an appraisal or
a municipal code inspection - it is simply a tool to aid you,
the purchaser, to be better prepared and more knowledgeable
about what to expect in your intended purchase. |
|
 Of
course, a home inspection will also point the positive aspects
of a home as well as the type of maintenance that will be necessary
to keep it in good shape. After the inspection, you will have
a much clearer understanding of your intended purchase and you
will be able to make your decision confidently. |
