Buying a residential home or commercial property is a huge investment. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer some insight into whether the purchase is a smart choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only uncovers the problems, but it will also bring to light the positives and any probable maintenance that may be essential in the future. After a intensive inspection, you will have a deeper understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the contract or confident enough to continue 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 employed to avoid pricey future repairs.
If you are considering selling your home, you may want to have a home inspection prior to going to market. The inspection will expose areas of concern that may be detected by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine whether to make the repairs in advance or to disclose the findings to a potential buyer giving you an advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
