Complete Home Inspections

What is a Complete Home Inspection? Do I need one?

A home inspection is a limited non-invasive visual examination of the condition of a home. Whether selling or buying a home, a home inspection is the best way to determine a home's overall condition. Many lenders require a home inspection as part of the home loan process.

As a seller, having a home inspection before listing your home is a great way to find out what will need repair and eliminate any surprises that may be an obstacle to completing a home sale.

As a home buyer, having a home inspection can be one of the smartest precautions you can take. Homes aren't cheap and are the most expensive purchase the majority of us will ever make. With many real estate transactions amounting to half a million dollars or more, the last thing you want is rude and expensive surprises once you've moved in. Home repair is not a cheap or inexpensive endeavor. When it comes to homes, problems can mean large repair bills, sometimes reaching into the tens of thousands of dollars or more.
