Residential & Commercial
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. Homeowners can identify problems in the making, and take preventive measures to avoid costly repairs. Sellers can understand conditions that the buyer’s inspector may point out and could put the property in better selling condition by making repairs. Our inspection services include:
Buyer's 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 problems require immediate attention. See our inspection overview for more details.
Seller's Inspection
According to the National Association of Realtors, buyers of homes that were pre-inspected by the sellers accept that report 80% of the time. Whether you are selling your home on your own or using a realtor, it is 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 must be immediately addressed and which can wait. The more you know about your home, the more prepared you will be for negotiation. See our inspection overview for more details.
Construction Inspection
In a new home, the quality of construction is often not what it used to be some years ago. Therefore many buyers have independent reviews of their properties during various stages of the construction process, including slab, frame and final inspection. This relatively inexpensive inspection protects 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. It is prudent to obtain our home inspectors list of items that will most likely be repaired by your builder at no cost to you. You will be reassured knowing that potential problems were addressed before they grew into something that could cost you a great deal down the road.
