A pre-purchase home inspection gives you the most important information you needed to protect you and your family. Not understanding the true condition of your prospective purchase can cost you an arm and a leg, not to mention innumerable hours of your valuable time. Regardless of whether an inspection uncovers a major defect or not, it makes sense to have an independent review done on your behalf, so that you have peace of mind.

We strongly encourage you to not only attend the inspection but to follow along with the inspector and ask questions.  The inspection is an important opportunity to learn about the house and get some good tips on maintaining it, even seasoned home owners who attend the inspection and have been through other inspections often pick up and learn new things.  Much of the information will be helpful after you have moved in.

The property report is not a full guarantee that all potential defects have been identified. The purpose of the report is to provide the home buyer with detailed information about the defects that were visible at the time of the inspection. You have to decide if the defects are significant enough to put off the purchasing date.
The property inspection report is 9-20 pages long. It can easily be printed and mailed, emailed or faxed to you, your agent, a family member, and/or your lawyer upon your request.

We will not fail a home, the home inspection is done to describe the current physical condition and indicate what may need repair or replacement.  The decision to buy the home is ultimately the decision of the buyer.  Each buyer has different skills and different goals for the property.

A home inspector is typically called right after the purchase agreement has been signed, and is made available to you within 2 to 3 days. However, before you sign, be sure that an inspection clause is included in the contract, making your purchase obligation conditional to the findings of a professional home inspector.
