Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a substantial investment. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer valuable insight into whether the purchase is a good decision.
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 vital in the future. After a thorough inspection, you will have a stronger understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the contract 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 wish to have a home inspection prior to going to market. The inspection will bring to light areas of concern that may be identified 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 advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
