what IS A HOME INSPECTION?
A home inspection is a crucial step in the homebuying process. It involves a thorough examination of a property’s condition, safety, and functionality. A certified home inspector assesses various aspects of the house, including major systems like plumbing, electrical, heating, and cooling. The goal is to identify any existing issues, safety concerns, or potential repairs. Keep in mind that a home inspector’s role is not to fix problems but to provide an accurate snapshot of the home’s current state.
Different types of Home Inspections include New Purchase, Pre-Drywall, New Construction, and Builders Warranty
