Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a huge investment. And, knowing the condition of the property before you commit to the purchase can offer some insight into whether the purchase is a wise choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only exposes the issues, but it will also point out the positives and any potential maintenance that may be necessary in the future. After a complete inspection, you will have a stronger 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 find problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be taken to prevent pricey future repairs.
If you are considering selling your home, you may want to have a home inspection before going to market. The inspection will bring to light areas of concern that may be detected by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine whether to perform the repairs in advance or to disclose the data to a potential buyer giving you an upper hand when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
