Buying a residential home or commercial property is a huge expenditure. And, knowing the condition of the property before you commit to the purchase can offer some insight into whether the purchase is a good decision.
A home inspection or property inspection not only uncovers the negatives, but it will also reveal the positives and any probable maintenance that may be required 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 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 planning to sell your home, you may want to have a home inspection before going to market. The inspection will uncover areas of concern that might be found by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine 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.
