Home inspections can help you buy or sell your home with confidence. As trained professionals we have seen it all, and
we'll provide invaluable help in turning you into a knowledgeable consumer. Inspections help buyers and sellers identify
problems in the making and take preventive measures to avoid costly repairs. Our inspection services include:
Buyers
Inspection In both new and older homes, the best way to ensure that you are well informed about the strengths
and weaknesses of a property is to have us give you a professional home inspection. We are trained to identify problem areas
both small and large that may have been overlooked by the previous owners and to identify which require immediate attention.
See our
Inspection Overview for more details.
Pre-listing Inspection Whether you are selling your home on your own
or using a realtor, it’s always a prudent idea to have a professional home inspection. Knowledge is power. All homes
have strengths and weaknesses: we help you answer how serious the problems are and which issues must be immediately addressed
and which can wait. The more you know about your home, the more prepared you will be for negotiations. Pre-listing inspections
frequently save money and expedite closing. See our
Inspection Overview for more details.
Pre-Drywall Inspection Unfortunately, new home construction is not what
it used to be. Many sub-contractors can’t wait for the drywall to be installed, hiding their mistakes or poor
workmanship. No one will ever see it, until it fails. This can lead to expensive repairs and litigation. Many builders don’t
want you to have an inspection. They don’t want anybody looking at their sub-contactors work. You have a legal right
to have the home inspected at any reasonable time. This relatively inexpensive inspection helps to protect your purchase,
prevents unpleasant surprises, and ensures the quality home that you’ve dreamed about.
Warranty
Inspection Most builders provide a one-year warranty for new construction. Generally during this period of
time the buyer develops a "punch list" of corrections for the contractor to repair under the warranty coverage.
Some defects will not be obvious to the untrained eye. This may be your last chance to have items repaired for “free”.
Frequently, the cost of just one repair is much more than the cost of the warranty inspection.
