Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a substantial investment. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer useful insight into whether the purchase is a good decision.
A home inspection or property inspection not only highlights the negatives, but it will also reveal the positives and any probable maintenance that may be essential in the future. After a comprehensive inspection, you will gain a stronger understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the price or confident enough to continue with the purchase.
If you are already a property owner, a home inspection can be used to identify problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be taken to avoid costly future repairs.
If you are considering selling your home, you may want to have a home inspection prior to going to market. The inspection will uncover areas of concern that may be discovered by the buyer’s inspector. You may then choose whether to make the repairs beforehand or to disclose the findings to a potential buyer giving you an advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
