Buying a residential home or commercial property is a big expenditure. And, knowing the condition of the property before you commit to the purchase can offer worthwhile insight into whether the purchase is a good choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only uncovers the negatives, but it will also bring to light the positives and any likely maintenance that may be needed in the future. After a comprehensive inspection, you will gain 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 prevent 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 bring to light areas of concern that might be exposed by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine whether to perform the repairs beforehand or to disclose the problem areas to a potential buyer giving you an advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
