Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a very large investment. And, knowing the condition of the property before you commit to the purchase can offer valuable insight into whether the purchase is a wise choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only highlights the problems, but it will also bring to light the positives and any probable maintenance that may be required in the future. After a comprehensive inspection, you will have 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 utilized to determine problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be taken to prevent costly future repairs.
If you are 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 might be discovered 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 upper hand when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
