Buying a residential home or commercial property is a huge investment. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer important insight into whether the purchase is a good decision.
A home inspection or property inspection not only highlights the issues, but it will also reveal the positives and any probable maintenance that may be vital in the future. After a comprehensive inspection, you will posses a stronger understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the sale or confident enough to continue with the purchase.
If you are already a property owner, a home inspection can be used to identify problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be taken to prevent pricey future repairs.
If you are selling your home, you may want to have a home inspection before going to market. The inspection will expose areas of concern that may be identified by the buyer’s inspector. You may then choose whether to make the repairs in advance or to disclose the problem areas to a potential buyer giving you an upper hand when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
