Buying a residential home or commercial property is a considerable expenditure. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer important insight into whether the purchase is a good choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only exposes the negatives, but it will also reveal the positives and any likely maintenance that may be required in the future. After a thorough inspection, you will posses 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 utilized to find problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be employed to prevent pricey future repairs.
If you are considering selling your home, you may want to have a home inspection before going to market. The inspection will uncover areas of concern that may be detected by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine whether to make the repairs in advance or to disclose the findings to a potential buyer giving you an advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
