Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a very large investment. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer important insight into whether the purchase is a sensible choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only uncovers the negatives, but it will also reveal the positives and any probable maintenance that may be desired in the future. After a meticulous inspection, you will posses 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 determine problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be employed to prevent pricey future repairs.
If you are considering selling your home, you may wish to have a home inspection prior to going to market. The inspection will reveal areas of concern that may be exposed by the buyer’s inspector. You may then choose whether to perform the repairs in advance or to disclose the problem areas to a potential buyer giving you an advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
