Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a big investment. And, knowing the condition of the property before you buy can offer valuable insight into whether the purchase is a sensible decision.
A home inspection or property inspection not only uncovers the problems, but it will also bring to light the positives and any potential maintenance that may be vital in the future. After a intensive 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 prevent costly future repairs.
If you are selling your home, you may wish to have a home inspection prior to going to market. The inspection will uncover areas of concern that may be detected by the buyer’s inspector. You may then choose whether to perform the repairs beforehand or to disclose the data to a potential buyer giving you an upper hand when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
