Buying a residential home or commercial property is a big expenditure. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer some insight into whether the purchase is a sensible decision.
A home inspection or property inspection not only uncovers the issues, but it will also bring to light the positives and any likely maintenance that may be desired in the future. After a detailed inspection, you will posses a deeper understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the price or confident enough to move forward with the purchase.
If you are already a property owner, a home inspection can be utilized to spot problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be taken to avoid pricey 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 upper hand when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
