Buying a residential home or commercial property is a huge expenditure. And, knowing the condition of the property before you buy can offer important insight into whether the purchase is a good choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only highlights the negatives, but it will also point out the positives and any potential maintenance that may be necessary in the future. After a intensive inspection, you will posses a deeper understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the sale or confident enough to continue with the purchase.
If you are already a property owner, a home inspection can be utilized to determine problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be taken to prevent pricey future repairs.
If you are selling your home, you may wish to have a home inspection prior to going to market. The inspection will bring to light areas of concern that may be exposed by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine whether to perform the repairs beforehand or to disclose the findings to a potential buyer giving you an upper hand when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
