Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a sizable expenditure. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer helpful insight into whether the purchase is a good decision.
A home inspection or property inspection not only exposes the problems, but it will also point out the positives and any likely maintenance that may be desired in the future. After a thorough inspection, you will posses a stronger understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the sale or confident enough to move forward with the purchase.
If you are already a property owner, a home inspection can be utilized to find problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be employed to avoid costly future repairs.
If you are considering selling your home, you may wish to have a home inspection before going to market. The inspection will bring to light areas of concern that may be found by the buyer’s inspector. You may then choose whether to perform the repairs in advance or to disclose the findings to a potential buyer giving you an advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
