Lighting The
Way to Your Home
Inspected Once, Inspected Right
What Really
Matters
Buying a Home?
The process can be stressful. A home inspection is supposed to give
you peace of mind, but often has the opposite effect. You will be
asked to absorb a lot of information in a short time. This often
includes a written report, checklist, photographs, reports, and what
the inspector himself says during the inspection. All this combined
with the seller's disclosure and what you notice yourself makes the
experience even more overwhelming. What should you do?
Relax.... Most
of your inspection will be maintenance recommendations, life
expectancies and minor imperfections. These are nice to know about.
However, the issues that really matter will fall into four
categories:
-
Major
defects. An example of his would be a structural
failure.
-
Things that
lead to major defects. A small roof-flashing leak for
example.
-
Things that
may hinder your ability to finance, legally occupy, or insure the
home.
-
Safety
hazards, such as an exposed, live buss bar at the electrical
panel.
Anything in these categories should be
addressed. Often a serious problem can be corrected inexpensively to
protect both life and property.
Most sellers are honest and are often
surprised to learn of the defects uncovered during an inspection
Property Inspections make
good sense whether buying, building or selling. Understanding your
home's systems and components are critical when it comes to
purchase, repair and maintenance decisions. A professional property
inspection is an impartial third-party visual evaluation of the
physical structure, electrical, plumbing, heating, air conditioning,
roof, interior and exterior. Upon completion, you will receive a
formal written inspection report detailing the condition of each
item inspected.
