Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a huge expenditure. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer beneficial insight into whether the purchase is a good decision.
A home inspection or property inspection not only exposes the problems, but it will also bring to light the positives and any potential maintenance that may be desired in the future. After a thorough inspection, you will gain 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 used 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 reveal areas of concern that might be exposed by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine whether to make the repairs beforehand or to disclose the data to a potential buyer giving you an upper hand when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
