We believe in charging proper prices based on the time to do the inspection and report making process. What a Home Inspection is The inspection is a reasonable effort to disclose the condition of the property on the day of the inspection--- a look at the home with an experienced eye. A home inspector conducts a visual examination of the property and can check for visual defects or functional problems. The process can take several hours during which time the house is inspected from the ground up. The inspector looks into attic, enters crawl spaces, and examines the roof. Also the inspector reports on the heating and cooling system, electrical, siding/exterior finish, fireplace and chimney, doors and windows, foundation, water penetration, water heater, porches/decks, gutters and down spouts, grounds, walks and driveways, plumbing, ventilation, walls, floors, ceilings, insulation, caulking, interior, kitchen, bedrooms, garage, and built in appliances. The inspector can check for visual defects or functional problems. However, the inspector cannot disassemble walls or systems, but only examine accessible functional parts of a property. The findings are provided in the form of a comprehensive report emailed to the client or with the client's permission it is sent to the real estate agent by 6:00 A.M the next day. Are Home Inspections needed You need a home inspection if you are looking to buy a home. A home inspection can help you avoid costly and unpleasant surprises and provide peace of mind. It will help you identify the house that is right for you, and alert you to potential concerns prior to closing any deals. It also will teach you about your potential home and its operating systems. You need a home inspection if you are selling your house. A pre- marketlng home inspection provides the seller with an objective evaluation of the home's condition before the house is put on the market. Consequently, you are provided with guidance in preparing your house for maximum sales appeal. A home inspection not only encourages a faster sale and a better price, it also helps ensure compliance with disclosure requirements. You may want a home inspection if you are a homeowner. Even if you do not intend to sell your home, a thorough inspection of your house and property every four to five years can yield significant returns. First and foremost, a professional inspector can identify conditions that may be present or may lead to safety hazards for family members. Furthermore, periodic inspections can help detect potential problems early, before they become severe and costly. Be present at the Inspection It is important that you, as the buyer or seller, be present during the two or three hour inspection. Also prior to the inspection, prepare a list of questions or concerns about the property and bring your list to the inspection. By being present at the inspection you will see first hand the condition of each component of the property so you will have a clear understanding of the property and of the inspection report. At the end of the inspection, you will know much more about the home than when the inspection began. We welcome you to accompany us through the inspection. We will inspect the home from top to bottom, and inside and out. We hope that your buying experience is a pleasure. Make sure you know that the home is the right choice on the biggest investment you may ever make! |
